A Veteran's Advocate. During my 30+ years in public accountancy my name became synonymous with computers, the Internet, and technology. And while today a computer and I are still never too far apart, as a VA accredited Veteran Service Officer and Veterans Advocate when asked for the current “words of the day,” I will quickly tell you: “Let No Veteran Ever Stand Alone!” As to “words to live by,” let’s start with: “To know yet to think that one does not know is best; Not to know yet to think that one knows will lead to difficulty - Lao-Tzu 71:1, and go on from there...

I am the Town of Oyster Bay, Nassau County, Long Island, New York, Veteran Service Officer (Dept. of Veteran Affairs Accredited) and Head of the Town's Veteran Services Division.

That said, any Veteran or family member who contacts me does not get turned away just because they do not live in the Town of Oyster Bay.
