Hi,

I am originally from New Zealand. I was born in Auckland and educated there. After studying for a degree in metallurgy, I worked with the Geological Survey out of Sydney, Australia assisting in seismic testing in the outback of Australia and off the coast. I travelled to Ottawa, Canada with my wife and daughter and as Manager of Computing Technology, I oversaw the procurement and installation of the systems for Canada's largest private telecommunications research laboratory for 7 years. My career changed and I became a founder and President for several high tech firms in the Toronto.

As a result of an accident where I was a passenger in a taxi, I was forced into a retirement of sorts.

I now spend my time between my home on the island of Aruba and Ottawa, Canada with my wife, Bobbie. This is where I write. I am accompanied in my writing ventures by my two pets....Alfie, a King Charles Cavalier and Winston, the Himalayan cat. They sit beside me for company while I write.
