I love learning. I especially love learning complex systems and then teaching others to do the same - while making whatever I'm working on as awesome and impactful as I can along the way.
I define education as the art of bringing out our best. That's why my art is the science of doing just that.

I like teaching people about the Bible. I enjoy serving in my church as a house church leader and in whatever other ways I can (being in the sound crew, singing songs, and making job aids). I like finding ways to identify and meet practical needs.
I have been a TechTrends article reviewer since September 2012.
I love reading, writing, thinking, and learning. I love science fiction - especially of the military variety (think of the Armor and Starship Troopers books [I am not fond of the movie]). My family and I often relax by playing video games (our favorite is all things Halo). I love learning about technology and thinking of creative and innovative uses for it.
I am looking for ways to serve in teams of highly motivated, passionate people who are dedicated to their craft. I want to work with people who masterfully bring meaningful and noteworthy projects to life.
It is not length of life, but depth of life. Ralph Waldo EmersonImmortality
I work with clients to design and develop professional websites, online training, company logos, graphics, and more. I also serve as a consultant that assists companies in designing and developing human performance and learning interventions ranging from job aids to advanced e-Learning.
And, in my spare time, I write. You can see my scifi books, the SiteFind Series, on Amazon here.
Our task is to educate [our students'] whole being so they can face the future. We may not see the future, but they will and our job is to help them make something of it.Sir Ken Robinson The Element
