I was born and raised in Tegucigalpa, Honduras and since 1991 have lived in Houston, Texas. My career has included international banking, the negotiation of oil and gas contracts in Latin America, power plant sales, and the manufacturing of fine china. My passion has also been non-profit board leadership which I have worked in for decades and continue doing.

Real life stories have always fascinated me. I love hearing them and telling them. This stage of my life is about writing down some of the best that have been part of my life.

The book about my father, Paul’s Way, will be published April 2, 2026. It follows his dramatic life—from Italy where he was forced to join Mussolini’s military youth organization, to the United States where he became an enemy alien during World War II, to Honduras where he lived for his last forty-seven years and was one of the most recognized persons in the country.

The Spanish translation will be published in May 2026.
