• About me:

  Once upon a time I followed the path of the entire family and my over-active mouth and became a lawyer.  I found myself in federal grand juries trying to help skinheads see that the life they selected wasn't worth it, that they should confess to the hate-motivated assault I was trying to prosecute, and move on.  I traveled the US and had wonderful opportunity to represent the government in a bunch of cool federal criminal trials.  The job was challenging, fascinating.  Then I thought..."hey...this is great and all...but not very entrepreneurial." 
  
  I started a business in my basement.  Wrapped and shipped thousands of baby gifts for global customers, and effected a career change to business.  That fun path -- with a couple large and small media companies in between -- led right here, to WEbook, and a chance to help fulfill the dreams of the many talented writers, editors, and devil's advocates who happily have found a home at WEbook.com.  Lucky me!
  
  Message me or any of the other "official" WEbook team members.  We will write back.  I promise.

• My claim to fame: Sang the Three Dog Night tune "Joy to the World" at age 4 from the center ring of the circus.  Have -- on two separate occasions -- had guns held to my head.  And...still here.  Second best job ever:  operating roller coasters at Cedar Point on the lovely coast of Lake Erie.
