Hi. Let me tell you about myself. I was a history major at Brigham Young University. I first created this page in order to publish my senior thesis (updated 17 Apr 2005). The rest of this stuff just sort of grew over the years. I enjoy publishing my research in this way. I hope you find something here interesting. Please email me to let me know what you think.

I still like to research and write on historical topics. I've done some research and writing on my own family history, including my mission to Venezuela. I like science fiction, music and movies.
