I
grew up in Lebanon NH most of my life with a small period of time in Montrose
NY. Lebanon is where all my ancestors settled many years ago. I have always
been active in sports of some kind but then discovered weights, Martial arts
and the like and have experienced a great journey on both. I always followed
Superman, Hercules and other heroic characters. I am sure that's what made me
who I am today.
What
inspired you to author this book?
Early
in my life I wanted to be my version of Superman. As I grew up I discovered the
world of security, where I created my own security business and have traveled
around the world as a result of my training and studies to keep people safe.
Many of my friends came to me and said , "You Know you should write a
book"

Where
did you get the inspiration for your book’s cover?
The
books cover is collaboration with " Book-baby Publishing" we both put
our minds together in creating something that describes the book. There is a
jet in the sky in which I was often on, the back cover were passport stamps and
pictures of my self in two modes of who I am. The figure on the front shows the
back of my head which speaks about the cover " Hiding in Plain Sight."
Who
has been the most significant influence on you personally and as a writer?
My
Parents number one and the people who have stood by my side for many years
through mentoring and including in the book what thoughts they had of me
through the years. Priceless!

Who
is your target audience, and why?
I
would say my target audience is Highschool youths to adults of all ages. The
School age audience I am hoping will get messages of inspiration and motivation
that nothing is impossible, it takes hard work but one can achieve all they put
their mind to. Other adults will enjoy the path I took literally " The Road
Less Traveled."

Living my dreams, showing many that nothing is impossible.
What
one unique thing sets you apart from other writers in your genre?
That
I told a real story, fully transparent but in the book there is not one
negative statement about anyone. This was done as I had nothing negative to say
about the people in a book that was full of hope, inspiration and positive
achievements. I visualize things that I have in life , have achieved them and
now telling that very story.
