Born and raised in the deep South, Olan grew up in a salt-of-the-earth family who played as hard as they worked. When time permitted, he devoured the contents of his local library, often reading two or even three books simultaneously. His summers were spent camping, skiing and fishing on Georgia’s Lake Lanier with family and exploring the verdant bayous of Louisiana with his brother and grandfather. Like any small-town boy, he yearned for more, joining the Navy to see the world. After years of exotic port visits, surviving a Pacific typhoon and massive earthquakes in the San Francisco bay area, he returned to the relative sanity of his hometown. He thrived in the dotcom craziness, establishing himself as a leading technologist. Along the way he helped define and mature multiple emerging technologies while earning five cloud computing patents. His love of reading, time in the military and adventures abroad combined to inspire him to being writing. His first book, Get Out and Thrive! was a labor of love, a way to assist his fellow Veterans successfully transition back into civilian life. Nowadays, he’s settled in that same southern paradise and spends his time writing, hiking and enjoying the company of his wife and daughter and their two dogs: Hazel, the world’s smartest Australian Shepard and her partner in crime, Redford, a mischievously ferocious Shih Tzu.
