He is responsible for creating and developing the 25th largest ship registry in the world and is a former member of the United Nation's World Maritime University's Board of Governors as well a former Executive Governor of WMU. His desire to see a world that realizes peace through prosperity - his greatest passion.

Projects have taken him to 85 nations with a concentration on North Africa and the Middle East as well as Eastern Europe. He was also a member of the United States' National Maritime Security Advisory Committee during the Bush and Obama Administrations.

Proudest of his career in the maritime industry, he began it at 16 years of age he joined the Coast Guard Reserve while in high school and college.
