Welcome. Thank you for looking at my bio. I’m the host of The Right Words podcast and the writer at this online forum for ideas. Most recently I have worked as an English Language teacher in Tokyo—unless you count the lessons I do from my laptop in Colorado. I’ve also worked in this capacity in New York City, Princeton, New Jersey, Seoul, Suwon and Busan, South Korea. I write poems, essays, maxims, petitions, jokes, stories and a memoir. Here, I recite my work for you to enjoy and consider. I hope to have guests in the future, as I have on You Tube. I have read my poems and jokes at venues around Long Island and New York City, Boulder and in Itaewon, Seoul. I endeavor to interview friends, family and everyone from astronauts to zoologists. My particular focus is all things philosophical and comedic, and I am very interested in communication, mindfulness, health and all the sciences—particularly neuroscience, and space & spaceflight and aviation.
