• The Great Lie that is ‘AGE’: At 58 years old, he spars hard every day with elite 20 year old athletes.  Many years ago, from a Taoist master, he learned that with simple practices that enhance rather than deplete life energy (meditation, 20 minute walks, 14 minute workouts, 10 minute yoga, etc.) anyone at any age can greatly extend their healthspan. 

• Legal & Political Analysis: A licensed attorney, he worked closely on the 2010 U.S. Senate campaign for Chad Christensen (R), a childhood friend from Las Vegas. He is progressive, and living in Italy provides him an informed viewpoint on the U.S. vs European mindset and safety-net.
