I am a non-active duty Marine having done my tome in Nam. I am an avid reader and real everything from action and adventure to natural history and everything in between. I am political consultant and have run several local, statewide and national campaigns. One of my most gratifying was being involved in Texas Senator Phil Gramm's campaign for president.

I am retired from a local bank as a loan officer and collection manager. I am married, have 1 child (daughter) and 2 sets of twin grandchildren 2 years apart.
