I grew up in Duluth, Georgia, and studied electrical engineering at the Georgia Institute of Technology. With an interest in Europe—and a Spanish girlfriend—I moved to France to finish my studies at Georgia Tech's Lorraine campus.

I started my career at the European Space Agency in Germany, and in 1997 founded an engineering company called Makalu Aerospace that was later acquired by a public company in the United Kingdom.

In 2000, I started a second company called Makalu Interactive that has designed and built products for brands like Google and Virgin America.

Today I live on the southern coast of Spain, enjoying the warm climate, friendly people and amazing diversity of the Andalucia region.

Starting my own companies was possible due to the investment principles I had learned over two decades ago. _Those same principles are available to anyone, and are what I teach in this new book._

I hope you enjoy Money for Something.
