He was an entrepreneur and a self-taught scholar in Information Technology, horticulture, culinary arts, guitar, and history and was an accomplished chess player . He was strongly committed to his Christian faith. Not only a self-taught scholar, but a tenacious researcher into investment market dynamics (thus the "market science" in the business name).
