Do You Know Me?

Who am I?

I ask myself that every day. But in reality I am just me.

I am a 60-year-old divorced man with two adult sons whom I love more than life. I am an instructional designer for a pharmacy automation company with offices in Dallas and the U.K. I used to spend all my time now on the road, but thankfully, I found my new path as a mostly remote employee working for a great company and my friend.

My love of writing happened when I joined the U.S. Army and they made me a photojournalist. It was either embrace it or be a foot soldier. I embraced it. I will tell you I do not have a vast vocabulary or profound wisdom from which to pull my prose. It took me three tries to get through college English. Yes, I am one of those. But, here I am, and if you are reading this, then I guess you want to know.

I spent 13 years in the army, and then found a job as a technical writer (not my forte) and then spent 10 1/2 years with the next company and 10 with the second. Now into my third real job post military, I have found a happy place.

I have a bazillion hobbies. Besides poetry and other written words, I make jewelry, have been a professional photographer and still shoot, fish and hunt when I can and I like to hike and camp, although I do not get to do this as much now adays. I love the mountains, and would spend eternity on one if I could.

So that’s about all the wisdom on me that I have at this moment. If you want to know anything else specific, just shoot me a comment.

    Great biography! Thank you for your service. My dad was in WWII, my only brother in Viet Nam, my oldest son in Iraq. All Army, so I do appreciate every person’s service deeply.

    You did an excellent job describing your life and seem very happy. That’s what truly matters right? I am a new follower now. I like the way you write poetry. I am a mixed-media artist and have started to write some poetry. You can find mine in the last couple years in April and maybe this year in February also.
    Take care and enjoy the road.
