Bio:
Hello. I have worked in the medical insurance field for 30 years including time as a CEO. I developed the first 3rd-party system for medical assessment for health insurance companies saving consumers money. This consists of constantly researching cutting edge medicines and medical treatment. Daily, 50 sites and organizations send new information to me. I have seen, in my profession the price people pay when they do not have access to current medical data with respect to treatment and have a burning desire to help them through my research and writing. When I can, I employ first-person experience in my information. I have written courses and consulted for Illinois Central College and Bradley University as well as consulted for the Illinois Dept. Insurance.
I've had corporate papers published and was lauded in the Wall Street Journal for sales a number of years ago.
