About Me

I love to travel. A lot. I realized this fact many years ago and decided that I would find a job that would allow me to hit the road--at will--and not have to take "vacation time" to do so. I soon found that such jobs are very rare indeed, so I had to create my own. Hence the founding of Gloss Pictures and The Plateau Group. I could tell you about them, but that is boring stuff no one really wants to read about, I'm sure. To me, life is not about work. I know that sounds very "hippie-ish", but like the old saying goes "No one ever said from their death bed 'I wish I would have spent more time in the office'".What else...Well, life took me to Costa Rica for what turned out to be a very eye-opening experience. Let's just say that living an another country for a year will provide you with some very, VERY interesting opportunities...The adventure--that is my life--continues...
