About Me

I live in the mountains of Western Montana, a veritable paradise for an outdoor sportsman and contemplative freelance writer. Among the many activities I enjoy out in these wide open spaces are mountain climbing, snowshoeing, snow boarding, trail running, mountain biking, hiking, and backpacking. On the wild, majestic rivers that carve through these magesterial peaks and mystical meadows, I'll either be fly fishing, kayaking, rafting, or just sitting on the banks where I'm content to let the mysteries of life flow right on by. In order to stay in shape and better enjoy all of these rugged activities which take place in remote areas where self-reliance is a must, I have become a bit of a fitness expert and enthusiast.

My Experience

I've found my niche freelance writing about the topics I have experience, strength and knowledge in which is beginning to meld nicely with all of my pursuits out here in the Montana Rockies. As a contributing editor, I'm well versed in SEO, editing, and research tecniques. As a small business consultant, I have a great amount of insight and can offer many solutions to small business owners in regards to their desktop publishing needs.As an avid amatuer photographer, I use my own panoramic, wilderness photos when they are suited for an article.

I received a Combat Infantry Badge for service in Iraq. I graduated with honors in history from The Citadel in that most charming city of Charleston, South Carolina on the banks of the Ashley River. I fought forest fires all over the Great North West. My roots are in Greenwich, Connecticut and they will always be so long as this tree holds life.
