Greetings and welcome! I am just your typical tree-hugging, EV-lovin' bicycle-nut. I don't do much editing on Wikipedia these days, but I may start up again. Thanks for stopping by.

About Me

I am forty-something.

I live in Southern California

I am currently driving to work, but I want to figure out a way to get to work in a more environmentally-friendly manner.

I wrote a science fiction novel, which was fun to do, but I have not really tried to get it published because that seems too much like work.

I recently tried to get a bicycle import business going, but I gave up on it because I wanted to spend more time with my kids.

I write for EVWorld when I have time, but see my previous note about spending time with my kids.

I would love to hear from any of you who feel as though you have something worthwhile to say to me.

Professional Life

I am an engineer. I have spent most of my career developing electric vehicles and related equipment, but I recently got a more stable job developing aircraft fire suppression equipment.

Prior to receiving my engineering degree, I worked primarily in the bicycle industry selling, building and distributing bicycles and associated products. I worked for Moots Cycles, Fuji Bicycles and several bicycle shops. I also built some frames on my own.
