Biography
Vesta (BS Home Economics,’81) and I have two college-age children, Julia and Lee. We now live in a suburb of New Orleans where I’ve worked the past seventeen years as a petroleum geologist for the Minerals Management Service (the MMS is a Federal agency that regulates the offshore oil and gas industry). Prior to that, I did a five-year stint at Amoco. Vesta works full-time as a consulting dietician. When not working, I write novels for fun and join Vesta in watching our son play baseball.
