FULL BIO
Business Systems Strategist, Capitalist, Humanitarian, Student of Spiritual Philosophy and Intuitive
I am the nexus of two personality types: the alpha male uber-Capitalist and the Zen student connected to source. This is the result of growing up in the U.S. Reaganomic era and Trudeau`s socialist Canada!
A former military communications specialist turned frontline humanitarian and social activist, I am making a positive contribution to globalization through cutting edge technologies that I refer to as ``web-civilization transmutation`.
I work in post-conflict and natural disaster environments managing security, logistics, backshish (bribe payments), and tech support.
Looking to make new connections, meet more great people, and do some good in this life.
Current research projects are:
- Post-conflict reconstruction (PCR) measures of effectiveness and evaluation systems
- Project Identigenesis: cultural and economic accelerator
- Wireless path mapping: making invisible networks visible using electronic warfare technologies.
