Personal Background
I was born and raised in Upstate NY. I am a proud parent of five, grandfather of 10 and pseudo parent to many youth. I enjoy reading, meditating, watching documentaries and educational videos. I like to tell jokes and do my best to bring positive energy into the room. I enjoy spending time in nature and observing animals. I am also a lover of basketball and other sports. I study spirituality, astrology, and the psychology of the mind, body and spirit.
I understand the importance of individuals knowing their purpose and I encourage others to go after it despite what obstacles they may face. I've been called to assist others discover their passion and tap into their purpose by getting to know their 'higher' self.
