I never had a family and when i came to Winchester i was living on my own, renting and working 2-3 part-time jobs. I completed my bachelor's degree at Northeastern University in 2000 after many years of night school paying as i went. I eventually worked as a laboratory supervisor for a 110 scientist research headquarters, as a technician for Hewlett Packard and finally came to Home Depot after a lengthy period of involunary unemployment. I had to leave Massachusetts because no one would hire me and i even tried to work for free to build new skills but no one would give me a break. I volunteered for 15 years in Massachusetts from suicide hotlines to meals on wheels to literacy to fundraisers for different charities. I am a martial arts and fitness and movie/book buff.

I was engaged once but have never married and have no children. I was a copy editor for the Boston Computer Society's BCS Journal which at the time had a 10,000+ member circulation.

I received no help from family, as i had none.I wrote a book manuscript that was ahead of its time and unpublished as well as a movie screenplay submitted to United Talent Agency,called "The Wanderer". I lived at the New England Home for Little Wanderers f...(read more)
