His hobbies ranged from making jewelry, photography, writing poetry, and his most favorite pastime, strumming his bass guitar with anyone that wanted to jam. He was very knowledgeable in many subjects whether it be on a spiritual level, or to the scientific. He began his engineering career in computer technology in 1976 with Memorex, and ended his career in 2014 with Hitachi, despite having a Bachelor's Degree in Psychology.
