Bio: Born on New Amsterdam he started his own business as a young man, buying junk robots and rebuilding them.  He eventually sold his company and invested the money in an off-world robotics manufacturer.  When it was sold to a larger company ten years later he made a fortune, which he invested in building a mining and manufacturing colony in the Tyrias System.

He runs a mining operation in the Tyrias system, a place where a rouge planetoid hit a Mars sized planet in the Goldilocks zone of the star, creating a band of mineral-rich asteroids.  His base is in the largest asteroid in the belt.  There are three known wormholes in the system, though it is a fairly remote system, as the aren't well traveled and therefore more difficult to navigate.
