Sr. Nuclear Equipment Qualification Engineer
In my current "day job" I am contracted to Terra Power on the Equipment Qualification (EQ) Team, helping to shape the EQ program from the ground up for their Natrium Project--an entirely new and updated sodium cooled, molten chloride, fast reactor system.
Business Development Consulting
I'm the guy you call when words like “growth” and “expansion” move from the realm of sounding like nice ideas into the arena of absolute requirements, when you're banging your head against the wall trying to figure out why you can't seem to break through, when sales are in a slump and the team is unmotivated. In short, I am "the guy" with more than 30 years of business acumen who can find the problems, fix the processes, work out the kinks, establish the methods, define the metrics, set the milestones, and draw the map to success well enough that anybody in your organization—from the janitor to the CEO—can follow it. I'm the fixer, the business development guru, the marketing maniac, the strategist, and the Slayer of The Status Quo!
Books I've Written
Crossing the God Line, What Frankenstein Knew That Darwin Didn't
A gleefully blasphemous romp through the garden of science, faith, philosophy, and some good old-fashioned existential panic.
Imagine if Bill Nye the Science Guy and Monty Python teamed up to host a TED Talk... while drunk... at a theology convention... in the middle of a zombie apocalypse. Then you'd land smack in the middle of this loony book: "Crossing the God Line, What Frankenstein Knew that Darwin Didn't."
This book doesn't ask "Where did we come from?" so much as it kicks that question in the shins and shouts, "Are you sure about that, Darwin?" Armed with equal parts curiosity, sarcasm, and a suspicious amount of caffeine, the author drags readers on a whirlwind safari through human development, evolution, entropy, and the uncomfortable truth that assembling a conscious meat-suit from cosmic leftovers might not be as straightforward as a biology textbook suggests.
You'll meet atoms trying to date, molecules with commitment issues, and proteins badly assembling themselves like IKEA furniture with some pieces missing. You'll visit Frankenstein's lab, where the good doctor may have had a better handle on the perils of playing God than we give him credit for. And you'll stare down the cold, logical barrel of the Path of Least Resistance and ask: "If the universe is really that lazy, how the heck did we get here?"
But don't worry, this isn't a lecture. It's a late-night bar argument between science and philosophy, refereed by a confused bartender with a philosophy minor and a hangover. Expect laugh-out-loud moments, eyebrow-raising observations, and a creeping suspicion that life might be a cosmic prank with surprisingly good punchlines.
Whether you're a devout believer, a hardened atheist, or someone who just likes poking holes in sacred cows with a marshmallow stick, "Crossing the God Line" invites you to question everything--especially the idea that we actually know what we're talking about.
Spoiler alert: we probably don't.
How to Wipe Your Dad's Ass & Other Things His Doctor Won't Tell You About Alzheimer's

Bad Dog Chloe, Bad Cat Benny & Mad Monster Molly
Chloe is our rescued min-pin mixed mutt. She's been a source of laughter and good times ever since we picked her up at a local vet.
She has her own Tik-Tok Channel where we share her mis-adventures and goofball ways with her newest sister, Mad Monster Molly, brother, Bad Cat Benny, and her oldest sister, Dixie Doodles. Our goal is simple enough... we'd like to inspire others to care for rescued animals.
The Old Painter
I've never really been much of an artist (other than photography, I mean), but that doesn't keep me from trying. A friend inspired me to pick up a paintbrush and give it another go. The goal for my art isn't so much to be "world-renowned" as much as it is to simply enjoy the process and hopefully inspire others to try something creative, too. I usually have some soft jazz playing in the background when I paint. I find it so relaxing...
