I was born and raised in Southern California. After High School, I married my High School Sweetheart and joined the Army and was stationed in Germany for 3 years. Came back and went to College to get my Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science and started my career as a Computer Consultant, Programmer, Engineer, Designer and have been a Computer Guru ever since!

I've been married for 27+ years and we have lived in So Cal our entire lives and raised two children. I have a daughter who just graduated college and my son is still in High School. We have traveled mostly out of the Country each year on vacation to the Bahamas, Cancun, St. John, Puerto Rico, Hawaii, Italy, Germany. The reason being is because I always knew people who worked hard and waited to see the world after retirement but died before they had the chance.  I didn't want to wait so we traveled and still do but nowadays, we are trying to get out of debt and doing road trips each year to see the United States and find places we might want to retire Off The Grid.

When I turned 40, my focus changed to becoming more self sufficient, debt free and healthy for my family's future and survival. I researched and became Vegan for ethical reasons but have settled on living a Low Fat Plant Based Lifestyle which is the Healthiest and more sustainable and practical. We are now Prepping and Planning for our Safety and Security needs.

My dream is to buy at least 10 acres somewhere like Idaho and build a Cabin Off the Grid and stop depending on society so much! I'm tired of working my entire life for the system and living month to month instead of learning how to survive on our own! Every generation is becoming more dependent on technology and the system and only the ones who plan, prepare and learn the skills to live off the land will survive a disaster or collapse. My only regret in life is not pursuing this dream sooner...

This is my new philosophy and priority in life....

Health is #1 because the leading cause of Death is from food born related Diseases. It doesn't make much sense to me anymore to do everything else to protect myself and family while killing ourselves from bad lifestyle choices.  As consumers, we have more control over what we eat and buy but most of us choose to blame others and live off the food and health care system instead of changing habits, cutting out most of the processed foods, eating whole foods, growing, hunting and helping ourselves.

Safety is #2 because that is the 2nd cause of Death. If we don't die from our own Health problems, we are more likely to be killed accidentally caused by ourselves or others.  With all of the technology and fast paced market and world we live in, it's very easy to become distracted so we must learn to put Safety First when around or operating any type of dangerous equipment. That includes, learning how to use it, wearing protective gear, training and paying attention not only to ourselves but to others who do not.

Security is #3 because that is the 3rd cause of Death. If we don't die from a Disease or Accident, then we might be killed from an outsider such as a dangerous Animals, Environmental or Human Threats.  We need to learn the skills to survive and that includes some Self Defense, Firearm training, and any Life Saving Skills to protect ourselves from becoming victims.

So there you have it! If you've read my bio and this has given you some things to think about and you have questions, shoot me a message!

Remember to Stay Healthy, Stay Safe, and Stay Secure!
