About Me
George started writing professionally at 16 with an interview of Ray Charles. He founded a leading NYC multilingual marketing communications company, Avekta Productions, with his wife, serving Fortune 100 C-level clients, politicians, and celebrities. Avekta produced in every continent of the world except Antarctica.
George has published hundreds of magazine articles and his three non-fiction books (published by McGraw Hill and Thomson Course) on desktop video production and computer animation revolutionized the industry just in time for YouTube.
George's first novel, The Wood Pusher is the result of deciding to write fiction full time (except for articles he writes here and in Forza | The Magazine About Ferrari) because he enjoys the pursuit of perfection at any cost.
George is the father two; a West Point graduate, veteran and mother of his three grandson - and the artist, El Chimu Grigio (@el_chimu), whose Instagram fan base exceeds 20,000.
I am the grandson of four ethnic Greeks from Turkey who met in America after escaping the same village.
I also sing Byzantine liturgy and of course, I dance!
