In addition to his writing, Ron is an avid outdoorsman who has traveled extensively across the Pacific to Nepal, New Zealand and other locations to hike and climb. His two month-long stays in the Himalayas have deeply influenced his views of the world and the awesome beauty it holds. Everest and the people of the mountains in particular. Out of this experience was born "THE LION OF KHUM JUNG", a novel set in the Himalayas, that was a finalist in the Syracuse Downtown Writer's Book of the Year Awards in 2014.
Ron resides in Central New York, and in his spare time, he dabbles in photography. Ron also works with the Sir Edmund Hillary Foundation in Canada to raise money for the Sherpa children of Nepal's Himalayas.
