My favorite quote is "if you live out of fear, you inspire no one, but if you live out of your dreams, you inspire everyone."

I'm an artist at heart with a passion for writing, though I've had success -- and failure -- as an entrepreneur. I love the medium of the written word; print lives forever.

I love being a husband to my beautiful wife Laurie Beth; and I love being a dad and teaching my 4 girls the nuances of life. I love sharing ideas and life experience. I love meeting others and hearing their stories.

I'm drawn to the ocean and its mysteries; when I'm in it, I literally feel like I'm in the hand of God, because all men are powerless in the sea.

As much as I enjoy nights out with good friends, I also enjoy evenings at home. I love sharing a kitchen with my wife Laurie and cooking good meals and reading and watching movies.

Often, I just enjoy being in the presence of my family, even if everyone is doing something different -- reading, working on the computer, watching TV, whatever. Just the presence of the rest of our family is both moving and powerful.
