History

I was born in Florida, and grew up in Oregon. I've lived in Tokyo for the past eight years with my wife and three daughters. Prior to coming to Japan - and before the kids came along - we lived in Bangkok, Thailand. I also served as a soldier in the U.S. Army when the Secretary of Defense was Cap Weinberger.
