A Brief Bio of Michael Phelps, Ph.D.
I left a dysfunctional family and began globe-trotting to gain an "experiential education,” and in that process graduated after three tours from the University of South Viet Nam.
As part of my education I lived in:
-
Sydney Australia,
-
Penang, Malaysia,
-
Tokyo, Japan,
-
Hong Kong, China,
-
Danang, Viet Nam,
-
Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic, and
an extended stay on a creek bank identified by U.S. Army Corps of Engineers on state map as “Copper- Head ridge”, along the Ohio River near Vevay, Indiana, with another Vet before integrating back into society and settling down. I understand PTSD.
