My totems are adventure, quiet thought and learning.

Native of New Jersey, transplant to Connecticut.

I have started and run two successful businesses, written three e-books, travelled to over 40 countries and lift weights at CrossFit four days per week.

I enjoy cycle adventures. Recently I cycled from New York City to Philadelphia to raise money for the East Coast Greenway project. I aIso solo-cycled from Battery Park at the tip of Manhattan to Albany on the Empire State Trail.

I read mostly history, biography and outdoor adventure books, but I cast a wide net.

My current business: Aspire HR Consulting, providing virtual HR services to small business clients.
