- I am
A very intense, high energy, complicated, overly sensitive and never say die type of guy. I am never satisfied. I believe you can do anything you want in life; you just have to do it. I am not a follower. I dislike and shun authority when it is incompetent. I always "buck" the system and its rules if they make no sense.
I enjoy leadership, I am often told it is a core strength of mine. I have been fortunate to learn my craft from some of the very best: My Father; Father John Psillis; Captain Jimmie Nickles; Lt. Duffy Casey; Sergeant Major David Clausius; LTC. James F. Bascom, MD; Frederick W. Smith; James L. Barksdale; and Walter Lindenfelser; as well as reading the biographies of Winston Churchill, George S. Patton, Lawrence of Arabia, Thomas Jefferson, John Adams, Benjamin Franklin and The Little Prince.
I enjoy risk and adventure and I suffer from an endless desire of wanderlust and the next challenge.
- I love
The military, its' rituals and ceremony and its code of duty, honor and country. I love Japan because it is where I grew up as a teenager. I also love its simple elegance, traditions and rituals, especially Bushido, the Code of the Samurai. I love Belgium because it is where I grew up as a young man. I also love people and hanging out with them doing whatever works.
- I cannot
Take tests, suffer fools lightly, chit chat with a lot of small talk, or deal with disloyalty, dishonor or mistrust.
- I enjoy
A good conversation, bantering, my friends and family, dreaming, experiencing new things and building stuff.
