Worked in the County Attorney's Office for 30 years as an investigator. Also ran at home business making and selling waterfowl calls for the past 11 years. Sold the business in 2010. Now an ORF...Old Retired fart!

oh, we all are definitely THERE. wherever that is ......

Multi-faceted but mostly sales & marketing.


After the Air Force, I worked as a lineman for the major power company in Denver while going to college on the GI Bill. After graduating with degree in Marketing, went to work listing and selling land south and east of Denver. Managed a series of successful companies before finally owning two Coldwell Banker Commercial offices. Always focused on large parcels of farm & ranch and commercial real estate. Also did several land development projects, alone or with partners. During deep recessions of 1979-'80 and 1989-'92 brokered corporate aircraft in addition to real estate broker duties.

Changed careers in 2003 into Marina Operations & Management, which is what I do today. Looking at moving to Panama soon.

Retired from the Canadian Army.

Retired Salesman, and proud of it. Ten yrs in Credit & Collections before that - including a couple of yrs as an outside collector for the Sears store in El Monte, CA (in my early 20's).

Then sold fax machines (7 yrs) and phone systems (last 18 yrs). Retired in 7/2000 and have never looked back.

Just keep moving!!!
