About me Born in 1961, I proudly served 22 years in the U.S. Army before retiring. My career continued with roles at the CIA and the U.S. State Department, leveraging my expertise as a cybersecurity analyst, a field in which I hold a Master’s degree from the University of Maryland. Married for 43 years, I’m a father to two adult children and grandfather to six. Now retired, I pursue my passion for photography, capturing landscapes and street scenes from my travels around the world.
