This is always a strange thing to do; writing about one self. Makes me feel as if I'm trying to win a date on Match.com.

Well I'm someone who's always been interested in cars, computers and technology. For over a decade I worked in Information Technology at companies like Pfizer, B/E Aerospace, and consulting for Siemens.

In my free time I like to drive around a lot, because I'm a car lover and tinkerer. I put thousands of miles per year on my cars driving primarily for pleasure. I find driving soothing and cathartic. I have had many great ideas and epiphanies that manifested during one of these meditative drives.

I fell into the career of being a website publisher after working to promote a brick and mortar business called Simply Additions LLC. The recent bad economy took away my brick and mortar business, as well as some of the largest stress factors in my life.

Today I make a living from home with the help of Google, YouTube, and a few other affiliates that work with website publishers, by creating useful quality web content for various websites that I own and/or contribute to.

In fact Simply Additions the website is one of my favorite creations. I have put countless, sleepless hours into the creation and development of its content and features. My goal is to make home improvement and building simple. By simple I mean getting things done the right way by giving homeowners a blueprint of what to do, what to check, what to say, and what to ask for. The years I spent at the brick and mortar business gave me insight that only a general contractor would know. Today I am eager to share that knowledge and help people through the website and its services with various home improvement and home building projects. With the news and TV shows like "Holmes on Homes", it is no secret that many homeowners get scammed by contractors. I really want to be a solution to this problem on a massive scale. So far I have won many awards for Excellence in Consumer Education for Simply Additions from the Better Business Bureau, a citation from the State Attorney General (now state senator Richard Blumenthal), and the recognition of my efforts from the commissioner of the Department of Consumer Protections (Jerry Farrell, Jr. ). These awards and recognition serve as a pulse to me, that I am on the right tract to fulfill my mission. Sometimes I wish I knew more about websites so that I can reach my goals quicker, but I would have never created these sites, if I did not live my unique life.

Another great website that I created is called My Health Struggles. I mainly created the site to vent some personal frustrations that I had with the health care system. I get a huge kick out of helping people who suffer from a condition called pancreatitis. I've discovered something that is not very well documented in the study of this painful affliction, and this discovery is already helping many people with pancreatitis. MHS is my contribution to making a serious impact to the lives of people who suffer with a painful condition. By constantly working on these sites and studying what to do, I will eventually reach my goals of helping people.

Another website that I created "Story Peeps" and work on is a site where people contribute content anonymously. I started the site with the hopes that I can help people rid themselves of secrets to help them vent and release the strong emotions and bottled up frustrations they have kept for countless years. The site took on a life of its own thanks to how unique people are, and some of the content on there is not exactly PG13. Today I'm letting the site grow on its own, while keeping a watchful eye on it. Some of the secrets shared on that site generate comments where I'm sure the writer of the content feels comforted in some ways. It's like an anonymous Facebook, except instead of people posting about their coffee breaks, people post stories about life changing experiences that had a huge impact on how their lives developed. In a way, this site can educate people who may be on the wrong course, because they can see where a person who's been on the same course wound up. At the very least they can see the consequence of what that course can bring them, if they do not change directions. My true mission of Story Peeps is to help steer young people away from things like drugs, gangs, and prostitution. The lessons are all there, you just have to be able to read between the lines to see them.

I created my Youtube channel called "homeadddition" originally to publish home improvement videos from Simply Additions. Today I create how-to videos and tutorials on cars, computers, gadgets, fun videos, and of course home improvement. On my channel, one can find out how to improve the speed of their internet on an iPhone, down to just viewing a ridiculous burnout with a modified Ford Mustang. I try to have fun with my videos,, but what I like most is hearing from other people through comments that my videos have helped them in some ways. Most of the videos that manifest those types of comments relate to the How-to topics, car and computer upgrades, and my website tutorials.

So I'm a car loving computer geek who had a career in IT and remodeling, that later turned all of his efforts to helping people through the power of the internet. My life is unique, and I want to use everything I learned to somehow make other people's lives a bit better. And of course making a living from doing something that I am passionate about and love is a huge bonus.

Lastly, I have to say that my wife Kawshica Noel Klimczyk is truly an asset to someone with my aspirations. She always has the right things to say, even when things are not optimal. I had a goal of meeting such a person for six years before we actually met on the internet out of all places. Hey, I told you I'm a bit of a computer geek :)
