He is also a curious creative, and loves to share knowledge and experiences with people. A lifetime of pursuing almost anything that caught his eye has left him with knowledge of everything from metal working, woodworking, small engines, electronics, computer hardware and software, to painting, sculpting, drawing, writing and creating music. But, while arts and science and creativity in general are incredibly important to him, his true passion is for understanding people and finding ways to bring out the best in them, as well as himself.
