I've been inventing, designing and implementing
scientific & technical products and devices for 20+ years. In recent years my emphasis has been software
and new technology development. I have one design patent, a fundamental natural language patent pending, and
one product was awarded industrial design of the year. Since 1992, I've lived in Wailea, Maui, Hawaii. I am
a private pilot without airplane, write screenplays, was assistant producer of one feature film.
