I was introduced to recovery in Houston, Texas in late 1977 when I was 21 yrs old. I found recovery thru PDAP (Palmer Drug Abuse Program) and at 18 months clean, I became a young counselor who worked with teens. I have public speaking background and love sports. I had a brief relapse in 81 due to my return to an offshore tugboat job and my severe reduction in meeting attendance. I understand reservations that lead to relapse. I have an outgoing personality and don't have enemies that I know of. I love the underdog.

Sports: baseball (first love since age 6), golf (low 80's), frisbee, ultimate, watching football, hiking, and ping-pong. I like old school rock and early metal music. I like cheering for the underdog and I also like watching a struggling addict get clean and find out that recovery really is cool.

I have no compassion for sexual predators of teens and children. I can't stand how CEO's are rewarded with outrageous bonuses when their company lost money during previous fiscal year. High gas prices and dependence on foreign oil.
