Holding a Master's of Science in the applied science of Agriculture & Extension Education, as well as having a strong teaching background in the public school and university system of Florida, Charles has also studied, practiced and taught a wide range of metaphysical subjects.

In addition to providing substantive research for and also teaching in the Pathways School of Intuitive and Spiritual Development, he does Tarot, Numerology, and intuitive readings and counseling. His qualifications include TM (Transcendental Meditation) meditator,
Reiki Master, Certified Hypnotherapist and ordained minister.

Charles has studied intuitive and mediumship development extensively, including:

· Association for Research and Enlightenment (Edgar Cayce Foundation), Virginia Beach, Virginia

· Findlay College for Psychic Research, Stansted Hall, Stansted, England, during which time he visited Stonehenge, the Avebury stone circle, and the Wiltshire area where he witnessed crop circles and
their energies. He stayed in Glastonbury, where historically it is believed the Holy Grail was buried by Joseph of Arimathea and Mary.

Charles' writings have been published in nationally known magazines including the Quartus Report, produced by John Randolph Price (author of Superbeings, Angels Within Us and other New Thought top-ten best sellers), and Odyssey, produced and distributed by Rev. Dee Patterson, who is a Certified ARE panel psychic, astrologer and spiritual leader.

Projects currently engaged by Charles include metaphysical studies of the esoteric literature of Alice Bailey, Joel S. Goldsmith, the Dalai Lama and various authors of texts on Buddhism. Of prime interest are the readings of Edgar Cayce and the Ra Material, which is featured in the David Wilkock material (www.ascension2000.com). The writings of Wilkock explain the interrelationship of sacred geometry, quantum physics, mathematics and ancient teachings such as the Vedas and Mayan calendar in a new and logical cosmology of the universe.

Other interests and studies include the near death experience, the teachings of the Ascended Masters and the realistic application of spiritual principles in daily life.

Charles and Marcella have been to Mt. Shasta, where they experienced the incredible healing and uplifting energies from that spiritual vortex during their honeymoon in 1998. They both plan to visit Machu Pichu, Lhasa in Tibet, the pyramids on the Giza plateau in Egypt, and other spiritual sites. They also want to visit India to see Sai Baba and the Dalai Lama, as well as Mother Meera in Germany.
