A Brief Biography.

I’ve been psychic for as long as I can remember. As a child I saw and reported things that my parents and siblings could only interpret as wild and imaginative. My first profound experience when I was five-years old was seeing my recently deceased grandfather floating above my bed. He promised never to leave me and would always keep me safe. The delusion of a grieving child? I might be inclined to believe this if he hadn’t continued to speak with and appear to me over the next 50 years! 

Back in the '50s and '60s there was little room within the existing cultural paradigm for anything that was not able to be measured and categorized. The modern age of scientific empiricism ruled how society interpreted the world around us.

My family members were and are passionate consumers of this mid-twentieth century perspective. A steady stream of television programs, magazines and books brought the mysteries and triumphs of scientific empiricism into our home. As a profoundly dyslexic child, I struggled but eventually conquered the frustrating world of print and voraciously devoured all the science and science fiction I could get my hands on. While I reveled in this new universe of ideas and exploration there was also something missing.

An acknowledgment and acceptance of psychic abilities as normal and legitimate did not exist in my young world. I have a dim memory that Walter Cronkite may have touched on Extrasensory Perception (ESP) in his show "The 20th Century." Like all media coverage of this ability at that time, it was presented as a comedic curio. ESP -- if it was even addressed in the mainstream media – was usually reserved for the funny bit at the end of the show we could all laugh at.

Then something wonderful happened. Sometime after the Summer of Love in 1967, a crack opened and part of our world began to seriously consider different ideas and perspectives. Discussions of clairvoyance, alternate realities, the existence of other intelligences (aliens) and perhaps even their space craft found their way into print and onto the back corner of many book stores.

Learning that there were other people with skills similar to mine encouraged me to begin my own explorations of my abilities. I devised experiments and was able to prove to myself that what I could see, know and interpret through my extra senses was real. Unfortunately, within my own family the topic was taboo. Anything on the “fringe” was, well, fringe. Something that only psychologically gullible or poorly-educated people might entertain or believe.

In the early '70s I came out of the closet and demonstrated to members of my family intuitive insights that they found intriguing and clairvoyant knowledge that defied their abilities to explain. But paradigms and comfort zones are odd things. For them to acknowledge and accept my abilities would require them to question their entire reality. Their discomfort with this was extreme and it was clear to me that any future discussion was pointless.

As a young adult I was blessed with an accepting circle of friends. Sex, drugs, rock & roll, ESP, UFOs, all rolled up into a wonderful world-expanding milieu. As I began to mature it became obvious how frightening these things were to the existing establishment and I kept my talents well concealed.

It’s no wonder that I found my way to art school where like-minded people worked and studied to understand how to look at and reinterpret our amazingly complex and beautiful world. As I explored my artistic abilities I also explored my psychic abilities. Learning to be an artistic communicator helped me to become a more effective medium.

As I left art school my ability to interact with people in this world as well as with those who have passed to the world beyond was vastly improved. While I am gifted in a number of psychic areas, it slowly became clear that communicating with those who have died was one of my biggest psychic strengths. I moved forward in life helping friends and sometimes strangers with this gift. Not as an occupation, though; I worked full-time as a media professional and educator.

It wasn’t until I helped a dear friend a couple years ago connect with her husband the day after he died under very trying conditions that I understood people truly want and need my gift. This dear friend reminded me repeatedly of the peace I could provide to those who suffer so deeply. I also benefited from the encouragement of my loving wife who believes in my talents and greatly encourages me to be more than I had settled for.

I suppose that after a lifetime of helping others it was inevitable that eventually a kind of critical mass would be reached where one person tells another who tells another and so on. Simultaneously, Universe has spoken loudly to me that this is what my mission in life is to be. So I have left my work as a media educator and am making myself available as a psychic medium.

Helping people here connect with their loved ones on the Other Side is tremendously rewarding and I am truly blessed to be able to share my gift with those who can be helped by it.
