Writer on Examiner as the Detroit Substance Abuse Examiner covering issues related to substance abuse. Also do freelance writing for Demand Studios.I am a former substance abuse counselor, and paralegal and have a passion for helping people with drug abuse/addiction issues, including the families of the addict. Wrote a book titled Crash Test Addict, unpublished yet. Also an amateur photographer who loves this as a hobby, and learning all he can about it.. Actually stumbled upon the abstract photos I posted on Flickr when designing, and building 3 prototype custom mirrors currently awaiting patents. The abstract photos, with the exception of about 3 or 4 of them, are untouched without any software manipulation. Basically, I'm just having fun taking photos, even if I'm not that good at it yet.
