As a kid, I loved learning but did not imagine myself a teacher... though, looking back on how I studied, I should have seen the signs. Encyclopedias were fair game.  And, learning and initiative and creativity were my play toys.  

That being said, it was my university years where I met Professor Hattenauer.  This was a man initially feared when you "heard" you were getting him for any number of Human Resource Development courses.  But, he changed my life.  He demanded much of us; because he believed in us.  He engaged me in classroom discussions when I would have "preferred" not.  He showed me capacities I never knew I had, by engaging me in the classroom.  There is so much more I can say but I reserve that to telling my audiences in person.  It is a story of character, love, unity, excellence, and inspiration; and it changed my life.

Yes, I am a lifelong student of the work around character, love, unity and excellence.  I have delivered on same for tens of thousands of youth and adults across North America.  Through it all, the message is together, strong.

With all of that in mind, on a personal note... I am a rocker, cartoonist, and dancer... yup.  These days, I enjoy a beautiful, modest, little home I call "The Cottage" in Mount Pearl, NL, Canada still missing my #bestlittledogintheworld Panda... teaching, speaking, coaching, singing, dancing, cartooning, boxing, walking, and following my Shinedown, NFL, Star Trek Discovery, Supernatural and great and epic super hero and sci-fi fantasy movies (I am a big time Marvel freak).  It is a good life, and I am grateful. Through Pandemic and all.

With ALL of that in mind, I am a lifelong lover of the sharing of massive, crazy cool ideas; giving and receiving.  And there is a childhood born story of imagination that I will be sharing here in pieces, as a mosaic, called Traig'henworld.

So freakin' glad to be here.  :-)
