I have spent 13 years in the military; active duty Army and reserve components. I spent 16 years in manufacturing doing everything from pushing a broom to being a lead ISO auditor for a billion dollar corporation. My various hats in manufacturing include corporate trainer, Six Sigma Black Belt, Lean Manufacturing Coordinator and Procedures Writer.

Why do I blog? This is a recent question that was raised. Interesting to think about. I like to write. It inspires me to think that people may be interested in what I have to say. This keeps my interest up, and it also helps me to document my journey.

I started blogging about 12 years ago. My first blog, Chronological Disorder was hosted on GeoCities and most people had never even heard of a blog. It was about the ‘adventures’ of being a single father and searching for a new wife. Deb started reading  it when we were dating and it gave her some insight to my strange thought process. I still have all those entries in hard copy and may eventually repost them somewhere.

My current blog basically documents my ongoing internet activities and my pursuit of a career on stage. I do local theater, murder mysteries, and improv, which is my passion. Dutch Blitzkrieg was approached and we filmed a ‘dazzle reel’ which is being shopped around as a reality show to document our journey. It has yet to be picked up, obviously, but that could happen at any time.

I am also in the (long) process of writing a fantasy novel, OneTree Down, and a musical for the stage, The Fearful Daggers.

Interesting bio! I actually used to write for a site that covered the manufacturing industry!

Hi, Rob,

Came to your site after your comment on my father’s guest post on my blog. Yellow puddle, indeed.

Not sure if you are aware, but I was one of the early Get Inspired! interviews.

Where are you located? From the whole improve, making movies thing, I would have thought LA, but the Berks County tv appearance, it seems like Reading, PA?

Hi Geoff, yes, I listened to your interview (I listen to all of them) and am from Reading, Pa. I would like to be elsewhere and Deb and I are trying to figure out timing to move to Myrtle Beach. That seems as good a place as any to commute to LA for shoots (perhaps someday)
thanks for the comment
Rob
