After completing extensive educational training, four years of military service with honorable discharge and holding almost ten years of upper management positions at Radio Shak and Alpine Electronics, he decided to immigrate into the United States of America. Here he fulfilled his lifelong dream to become involved in the movie industry. During his first 15 years in the video, audio and computer Industry, he realized the lack of a handbook to simplify the tech-talk that surrounded him. Many times he overheard people talking, but had no idea what they were talking about. His curiosity led him to visit several different bookstores, looking for a dictionary or handbook, to shed light on the mystery terms people were talking in. In 1995 and without any success in finding the right literature, he concluded that it would be a neat idea, to have a handbook and quickly find an answer for the most basic questions and widely used terms in his part of the Industry and the approaching digital revolution... for instance: what is a jib or a gaffer; what is a kilobyte and what does a cache do? He decided to embark on a new quest and to write the book himself... the idea of The Digital Dictionary was born.
