I have been a spiritual seeker from almost the cradle up. After discovering a disturbing three-month block of missing time in 1980 from my time as an enlisted airman in the U.S. Air Force – during which I had only the most general of memories – I underwent hypnosis to recover some of that missing time and to investigate other earlier memories and strange dreams from my childhood. What I discovered was staggering and life-altering, turning life upside down for me for a good many years, launching me into more study and research to find out what had happened to me, why, and in what context, and to heal from the ensuing emotional fallout.

As an experiencer of extraterrestrial abduction/contact and strange milab-type experiences while in the Air Force, I’ve gained deep insights into the workings of our world and the roles that different groups of extraterrestrials may be playing in it. Today I work to raise public awareness about the reality of extraterrestrials, to shed light on the machinations of the “shadow government” and re-frame it all in a life-affirming and hope-filled vision of where we may be headed as a species from my own life-long spiritual experience and perspective.

I bring to my work as well many years of self-study over a variety of disciplines. I’m a writer, artist and body-centered life coach, and founder of Durango Exopolitics, a local discussion group and durangoexopolitics.blogspot.com. It is no longer updated as I now use my website facingtheshadowembracingthelight.com for any current posts or information I am sharing.

I feel a personal sense of mission to present all the solid testimony and evidence I can to help people understand that extraterrestrials are real, are visiting our Earth and that contact with spiritually advanced and benevolent extraterrestrials could reshape our planet and society in ways that many of us have dreamed of – a world of peace, cooperation, sustainability and deep caring for each other as we move into an era of free energy and the ability to resolve our environmental crisis and move beyond economic slavery. What we must discover and create is the common energetic ground upon which this meeting can take place.

I hold a BSW (Bachelor’s in Social Work) from California State University, Sacramento, a certification in Body-centered Life Coaching and Radiance Birthwork from the Hendricks’ Institute and a certification in working with Highly Sensitive Clients from Elaine Aron, Ph.D. I am also certified in Quantum Healing Hypnosis Therapy from Dolores Cannon, and in Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT).

As an experiencer of extraterrestrial contact, I also understand the common problems, issues and often extraordinary insights and awakened talents of those who share a connection with this phenomenon.
