The founder of Hellicane is now pursuing a PhD. in Public Policy and Sustainability at Walden University.

Congratulations Steve in your pursuit of a PhD, I wish the best for you, I understand what you read from Growing Smarter, but I wonder if another large and dangerous Hurricane were to take the same route as Katrina.
