Many years ago I read the book The Four Agreements and took its wisdom seriously.  Since then, I have consciously worked to incorporate its precepts into my life and have discovered greatly simplified relationships, both personal and professional, as well as a better understanding of life in general.  

When not at my desk, my pleasures include:  spiritual study, nature photography, cooking, music & singing, ​tennis, kayaking, hiking, sailing, skiing, flying, travel/adventure, new things/diversity, being outdoors, anything windy.
