| Location | Naples, FL, United States |
| Introduction | I live in Naples where I indulge my episodic inclinations to write. I've been a tax attorney, CPA, a corporate tax and financial executive, and a leader of M&A teams. I've served in leadership roles on the boards or councils of church, professional, public service, performing arts, literary, independent school, and college nonprofit organizations. A Phi Beta Kappan, my education includes a BA, JD and MBA from Boston University and an EdM from Harvard. During the Vietnam War era and the Chinese Cultural Revolution, I served in the Marine Corps with Naval Security Group and NSA where I was trained and worked as a Chinese cryptologic linguist. I also spent a season on the All-Marine wrestling team. But now new corners are turned, new places found. Now I do what pleases me most: read, write, ponder life and God, and enjoy old friends and new. |
