Here's the short story: I'm a 7x serial entrepreneur, retired. One claim to fame is inventing and programming TeleMagic, the first CRM software product, in 1985. Back then there were no other products like it, so the category name CRM did not even exist yet.

I built a company around that software, and it grew quickly, but eventually the stress got to me, so I sold the company on October 2, 1992. Then I bought an open-cockpit biplane, became an adventure aviator for the next seven years, and wrote a couple of books about it.

Today I live quietly by the sea in Del Mar, California, where I love helping startup entrepreneurs. I also enjoy shooting pool, playing freestyle beach Frisbee, and riding a nice bicycle. Since 2016 I've been working with a skilled and passionate team building the iPhone app ToBeWise Pro.

I started building this website when the internet was just getting going, and because I like to write, there are currently 606 pages and 1,673 photos here, not counting my many blogs and other websites.
