I am from San Francisco. I received my B.A from the Claremont Colleges and my M.A. from Georgetown University. I am a retired businessman. I do some consulting work. My background is in the liquor industry. I brought in Polish and Ukrainian vodka to California. I was also the first to bring Georgian wines to California. My wife is Ukrainian, so we decided to live in Lviv as opposed to San Francisco.
I joined expat.com on 28 August 2012.
