I invest in early-stage high-technology companies in the Boston area and enjoy equities and options trading. My software career focused on database management and business intelligence as a techie, sales guy, and executive, and always loved the excitement of the start-up. I am President of The Porsche Club of America, Northeast Region, and a Director Emeritus of Launchpad Venture Group and Lucy's Love Bus.

For seven years, I entertained and hopefully comforted children battling various cancers at Boston Children's Hospital. Told stories. Played about a thousand video & board games losing consistently.

Betty and I live with our cat Jabba the Hutt. Unlike us, he cannot drive a Porsche 911. Nor can he ski Vermont, enjoy excellent food, and drink great Burgundy wines.

We will see where this year takes us, but it will be another active year of Porsches, wines, oysters, and island time.
