Biographical Information:

I graduated from Appalachian State University in 1978 with a degree in Anthropology. I was in hotel management and marketing for fifteen years working for private management companies that operated properties under the umbrella of such brands as Hilton and Marriott as well as ski resorts in the Eastern United States. In 1996 following the death of my father, I turned to adventuring full-time as a freelance radio broadcaster reporting in weekly from a different location around the globe. I continued this until the winter of 2004. Since then I have been living in the jungles of Belize researching the Maya people and the purity of their culture, writing travel articles, publishing an online magazine, co-managing an Internet network of Belizean content websites, and along with my dear wife, raising our two children. I am a self employed explorer and adventurer. I am also a graduated Anthropologist, a 'Fellow' with The Royal Geographical Society in London, an elected member of The Explorer's Club in New York City, a published author of two books and a proud husband and father of two. My source of income is writing articles and books and lecturing about my adventures. I also gain income from an Internet Technologies company I co-manage with my wife. To date I have travelled to over eighty-five countries around the globe, to include fourteen countries on the African continent.
