I am an aspiring author, artist, musician, and inventor. I am a disabled veteran. I was in The US Navy as a damage control man. My father was a fighter pilot. My mother became a personal secretary to five VIP's. My parents divorced when I was eight years old. I was born in Virginia. I lived in Virginia Beach. I moved to South Florida at age 13. I went to Randolph- Macon Academy my last two years of high school and went to Palm Beach Junior College, Broward Community College, and Florida International University. When I joined the US Navy I was sent to "DC A" school. I became a damage control man and did well for almost three years, however, I was discharged with schizophreniform disorder. I am presently well taken care of by The Department of Veterans Affairs, take medication for my medical and psychological issues. I do not work, but I write, draw, paint, record music, and invent. I dedicate my books to my wife, whom I love dearly.
