rs before getting caught in the downsizing of the industry in 1988. I then worked for a small company as chief geologist and did work in Bolivia, Columbia, Ecuador, Peru and Paraguay. I started law school at the Tulsa University, but marital discord cut my law career short. I relocated to Houston with my wife and two kids. In 1991, I went to work for Environmental Resource Management Inc. an international consulting company. I did project management and expert witnessing. In 1995 I divorced and in 1997 went to work for Schlumberger Information Services to do software development for the oil industry. I helped my then girlfriend open a very successful pub, which doubled my workload. Acting as chef, bouncer, bartender, carpenter and plumber I helped build up her business only to part ways with a transfer to Austin, Texas in 2000. I returned to Houston in 2002, and am currently working on various projects including water projects in the middle east, California and Florida.
