I've lived in North Carolina for most of my time after graduating from KY Wesleyan College in 1982. I did return to Louisville between 1989 and 1994, but took a job and returned to NC. Most of my career has been in the technology world, but in 2003 I stepped off the corporate bus to start Anna's Gourmet Goodies with my wife. We're an online business specializing in corporate gifts - pretty sweet!

I started another company, Complectia, with a friend and we've been tinkering with cool technology for the past several years. We build solutions on Amazon Web Services technology and are currently working on an Artificial Intelligence app for web server log files.

I published my first book on Amazon. You can check out my author page at:

It is based on stories from my blog. You can read it online at:

Loved those basketball games with 'Crash' and the megaphone - 'Miss it' was our favorite for the opponents at the free throw line. Mr Reader and how he used 'The Motivator' on Bobby Brown. Mr. Carroll making shots, sitting at half-court. Oscar Harrington - tennis coach and all around good guy. Working on the newspaper with Michelle.
