Fear and complacency arrive from the abandonment of wisdom. Therefore, a sensible man will have the discipline and ambition to embrace wisdom: to desire knowledge, to love justice with humility, to embrace virtue and moral good, to follow reason with self-assurance, to abhor wickedness and lawlessness, to exhibit courage with prudence. Thereby, winning recognition from the divine spirit of nature.
Background
Information
After earning a degree in Theology/Philosophy, I followed what appeared to be a foreordained path to study architecture. I received a Master’s Degree in Architecture and harnessed a thirty- year profession in the field of real estate development. My position in prominent New York architectural firms and with international real estate developers resulted in the successful design, development and construction of over 25 million square feet worldwide. I continue to passionately pursue a multi-layered life that includes philanthropy, sport, and academics: as the head of the venerable Village Temple Soup Kitchen in New York City since 1999, an ardent fly fisher for trout, a certified United States Professional Tennis Association (USPTA) teaching pro and high school tennis coach, and an author who continues a quest for knowledge and an elevated understanding of human existence. My life in New York City, with my wife of 36 years and adult daughter, continues to be filled with great majesty.
