What is the aim or goal of your writing: I attribute my success to "God and a love of writing and working with people." My work ethic is to "keep trying, accept rejection, be grateful for success. Above all, work to help people learn."

Though he left the Great Lakes for the mid-Atlantic region, his love for their beauty has persevered. He lives in Maryland and works as a Survey Statistician with the U.S. Census Bureau.
