| Introduction | I am a disciplined military type with a strong bohemian, eclectic streak. I went to college, played football, joined a fraternity, and graduated with a BA in Political Science/Minor in English. Once my dream of becoming an NFL football star was dashed, I got my grand tour of the world in the US Army fighting in three armed conflicts, serving mostly in the 18th Airborne Corps, and becoming an expert on the Middle East/North Africa and Central America. Finally, I decided to watch the next war on CNN with everyone else. So, I left the Army, graduated from law school and continue to learn, evolve and navigate the school of hard knocks. |
