I am a lot of things to a lot of people--: husband, father, uncle, friend, Brother, confidant, playmate, accomplice, advisor, teacher, confessor, and often, a nuisance. I am a US Navy veteran, serious foodie with chef training, former massage therapist, entrepreneur, business owner, part-time house husband, writer, and lifelong nudist and hedonist. And so much more, if you get to know me.
