| Introduction | I draw on my experience as a sub-contractor for the U. S. government for the tradecraft and plot of my thrillers, especially my knowledge of espionage, technology, military and political content. I was CEO of an eBook publishing company, and prior to that, the Chief Financial Officer of a major New York management consulting firm. I taught in several graduate business schools, including New York University's Stern School and was a speaker at financial conferences on topics including global banking strategies and computer fraud (hacking) countermeasures. I have been quoted and published in the financial press numerous times, including in US News & World Report. As a consultant, I investigated a global bank that housed the assets of almost every major intellegence network as well as the assets of many of the world's most feared terrorist organizations. I created financial forecasts for government agencies and global banks, modified banking conventions, regulations and systems, and developed new banking 'products.' My special area of focus was the Middle East. |
