Allan Ramsay
Back in the day: A briefcase filled with Cosmic Top Secret crypto material strapped to his wrist, and with a loaded .45 pistol on his hip, Ramsay traveled across Europe as an Intelligence Specialist responsible for managing and safeguarding NATO nuclear secrets.
Later: Throughout the 1970's he wrote scores of technical, marketing and advertising print pieces for Picker Corporation (now Philips Medical) and others.
Much later: He began writing for the web in 1995 with The Mind Spa, and continues 15 years later with the Safe Teen Driving Club.
Ramsay spent much of his career in sales, business development and marketing in the computer industry. Concurrently he founded Synergy Business Systems and The Mind Spa. Today he is co-founder and CEO of the Safe Teen Driving Club, and has served on the Board of Directors for the Joshua Brown Foundation.
He's earned degrees in English and Psychology from Ohio University and another in Professional Management from John Carroll University. Today Ramsay travels, writes, consults and enjoys life in an Atlanta suburb with his wife Becky.
