About me

Gender Male
Occupation International Business
Introduction I am in a transition phase, to say the least. At the age off 21 I had a degree in Medieval History and little else. I decided then that the next 21 years would be different and, two years in, I feel I am off to a good start. As this blog partially records, since then I have traveled to Europe, South America, and the Middle East. I also finished my International Business Master's in Mexico, worked overland from the Rio Grande to the Panama Canal and sailed as crew in the Caribbean and South America. Lately I've been back in the States, helping set-up a nonprofit documentary filmmaking company and frankly I have no idea what tomorrow will bring. Better yet, I couldnĀ“t be more pleased about it!
