During my formative years, I grew up in an air force family, where we lived on bases in Europe as well as on Long Island, NY, and, finally, in Florida. I graduated from Florida State University with a BA in Criminology and I have a Masters Degree in Leadership from Bellevue University. I also have a Project Management Certificate from the University of California-Irvine. I retired in 2012 from policing, as a police captain, after 27 years in law enforcement, which included 3 years as a parole and probation officer and 3 years as a Border Patrol Agent. Currently, My wife and I have two adult children, and we live on a small boutique farm where we grow flowers, raise animals, and enjoy county canyon living. I have been a MUFON field investigator for the last year, I hold a current private investigator’s license in California, and I have been a avid researcher in the study of science related to the subject of Ufology for the last 50 years.
