I have always had a passion to learn and I have always been driven to explore the world, and experience new things. I was born to a loving single mother who came out of a dysfunctional broken home filled with metal illness, alcoholism and suicide.  Coming from a wealthy family in Santa Barbara I saw the effects poor mental health and years of alcoholism can do to people.  I was raised very religious and at a very early age I witnessed angels take my grand mother to heaven on the night of her death, as well as the suicide of my grand father, brother, and uncle.  Kids get sheltered from much of this trauma at an early age and really do not understand why these people die or do not want to live. As I grew older I studies the book of Proverbs in the Bible and learned the importance of seeking wisdom, hard work, and living a good moral life. As I became a teenager my mother Cholly Ann Myers, started to develop heavy depression.  Watching this was my first lesson in the power of mindset and human nature. I was a fast learner and because of my love for science I gained employment with the Santa Barbara museum of Natural history in their high school jobs program for gifted youth. I worked as a science assistant in the labs of the Vertebrate Zoology department.  I then moved into Marine Biology as a public educator at the Santa Barbara Sea center. By the age of 18 my family / home situation had declined sharply with my mother having fully lost her mind.  Episodes of mania and mental illness became too grate for her. That forced me to run away from home. My dreams of going to collage to become a Marine Biologist or Digital Animator in Hollywood were all but gone. Now it was just a matter of survival. It was that year that I went to live with my Aunt and Uncle and then at the age of 17 my father said I should join the US Navy. So I did, the 4 years in the US Navy, from Age 17 to 23 were the most incredible and transformative of my life.  Some of what I experienced there I will document later.  For now, let me go over some of the key events that mark my life. From the early days of researching and writing my book, “Gnostic Visions” to today as a Crypto Enthusiast and influencer.
