“I AM a lover of golf. Nothing gives me more relaxation than playing a round of golf. Golf grounds me and gives me a sense of peace. I am inspired by my surroundings and the energy of the course.

“My Father was an entrepreneur the first half of his life and a spiritual teacher the second half. My spiritual thirst and quest to uncover the ‘truth of who I really am’, and create a culture that inspires others to manifest the life they desire, is my life’s mission.

I am passionate about self-exploration and self-awareness and seek freedom that comes with authentic self-expression. You can find me exercising, eating wholesome foods, playing golf, sitting by a river, and enjoying nature. I love supporting others as we evolve and grow.

As a man of Integrity, it is my self-loving and self-honoring intention, to live from my heart, for the purpose of experiencing Freedom and Bliss! Come join me!”

I AM a historian. There are only so many ideas and forms of existence in the world today. The past contains vastly diverse alternatives, governed by the same human potential and limitations as today.

I AM a creative fashionista inspired by everything around me. Fashion is and always has been a large part of my extended self. I express myself through my clothing and even my hairstyles. Most often, one can determine my mood by my current style. Although this is not always the case, I embrace showcasing who I imagine myself to be with my fashion choices. I push limits and dare to be bold. I accentuate joy and smoldering confidence. I am what you see, unique, colorful, love, life, and an abundance of fun. I sing with reckless abandon, write from my soul, paint with the rainbow, and bring a smile with my clothes.

I AM an artisan. I love taking an idea or creation and bringing it to life. I can think outside of the box to bring people’s ideas to reality, like fabricating items for cars, homes, or even the outdoors. I had the pleasure of creating a swing out of a ski lift, a breakfast bar for my wife in our kitchen, and numerous artistic pieces out of metal.

The creation that I am most proud of is the loving family that I helped to mold.
