I grew up in Idaho Falls, ID before moving to Utah a few years ago when I married my wife Tonya, she being from Southern California (Idaho and Cali, who knew…). I attended the University of Utah and BYU-Idaho. Between schools, I lived in Spain for 2 years (all along the east coast and the mediterranean island of Mallorca, my favorite spot). Upon my return, I started in the financial services industry with insurance, then to private investments. I realized my area of passion was working with businesses and working on my business and began consulting on the side. I eventually phased out of the financial services.
I have been a business consultant in the Salt Lake area for several years now working as a partner in a boutique firm called The Business Blueprint. I also am a partner in a few developing ventures that keep me fresh on my toes as an entrepreneur.
Some of my other interests include free-market economics, photography, painting, mountain biking, and rock climbing. You will see posts from time to time regarding these…
This site is meant to be an outlet for all that rolls around in my head. If you like it, feel free to comment, ask questions, share your own thoughts and works, etc. If you don’t like it, a small amount of friendly debate is encouraged. If I get annoyed by you though or you get offensive, I’ll strike it out! After all, it is MY site and its a FREE COUNTRY (sorta…)! I will also reveal new business concepts, consulting ideas and other “insider” information to get feedback and develop the ideas from time to time mainly on my business blog here. Enjoy and thanks for visiting!
