After a 40 year career, I am now retired. The first thing on my list of to dos was to get The Black Star published. Even though written in the 80s and recently updated, the story is more relevant today than ever.
I was born in San Diego, California growing up with one brother, Tim and one sister, Mary. As a family we moved to Phoenix, Arizona when I was a sophomore in high school. My parents instilled a strong sense of family while we were growing up.
I attended Arizona State University, graduating with an accounting degree. I would later earn my MBA from the University of Phoenix. I spent most of my career with large multi-national corporations that serve the aerospace and medical device markets.
I have two great kids that I am very proud of, Patrick my oldest son, and my daughter, Ashley. I am also blessed with three grandchildren, Kellan, Alex and Penny. My wife Trish is truly the love of my life. She is an inspiration everyday.
Thanks for stopping by and reading this short bio. I hope you enjoy The Black Star. Maybe there will be a follow up story.view less
