I'm an innovator - definitely an idea guy. I've invented a fair number of tech ideas in various markets over the years, which are now in use as standards. I've owned offices in the UK, Tokyo, Canada, and the US, and have spent a significant amount of time building custom telecoms solution overseas in many languages. I also spent 15 years building telecom IVR systems in Europe, the PAC RIM, and the us for network marketing companies. In the earlier days I wrote software in the banking industry with emphasis on ATMs, and voice technology, worked as an electrical test engineer. I'm a family guy with 8 kids, a professional martial artist, a twin engine pilot, and having been born and Raised in northern Alaska, I am as resourceful a person as you'll meet. We built everything we had or it didn't get done, so that teaches a person a lot that applies to life.
