Biography
As an educator, teacher and high school principal, I moved to Colorado in the '90s to both teach and pastor a small local church, while also working on a novel. After 48 years, I finished Freedom's Tree and self-published through West Bow Press, a division of Zondervan and Nelson Bibles. I taught at Success First, the alternative school at Doherty High School and retired from Coronado High School where I taught English and served as department head. In retirement, I've been a community activist battling against the commercialization of medical marijuana and against the proliferation of smart meters, a wireless industry tool that emits electro-magnetic radio frequency, or "dirty electricity."
