My photos have been featured in the Torpedo Factory Art Gallery in Alexandria, Virginia.  In fact, one sold within 2 days of being displayed!

I have personally distributed over 6,500 copies of my DVDs/Video CDs of the Marine Corps parades to current and former members of our armed forces.  This was done as a random act of kindness to thank them for their service and dedication to our country and our freedom.  Without their sacrifices, we would not enjoy the freedoms we have today.

In 2013, I sustained injuries that left me unable to walk without assistance for over a year (hence the lapse in pictures).  The Marine Corps and this project served as my inspiration to fight when the going was tough.  A special thank you goes to all the Marines who knowingly or unknowingly helped during my recovery.  The visits, cards, words of encouragement, supervised walks and the hugs... oh so many hugs!!  I couldn’t have come this far without all of you.  I can’t thank you enough!  “If the Marines can do it.... I can do it!”  They truly don’t leave a man or woman behind.  It helped me keep things in perspective and maintain a positive attitude.  Additionally, this project has played a role in my occupational rehabilitation.  The day I was able to finish the 2013 & 2014 DVD... incredible!

Additionally, I have made three hair donations - two to Locks of Love and one to Beautiful Lengths. The organizations provides hairpieces to children/women with medical hair loss.  Combined, I have donated 35 inches of hair.  I have spoken at several schools about the rewards of volunteering and giving back to the community.

Professionally, I am a management consultant with PricewaterhouseCoopers.  I earned an MBA from George Mason University in Fairfax, Virginia and a BBA from the University of Wisconsin - Madison.  I am a certified Six Sigma Black Belt, ITIL v3 Expert and Project Management Professional (PMP).

I believe in performing random acts of kindness.  Make someone smile by passing one on.  It comes back to you ten fold!
