J. David Dutch grew up in, and around, Toronto, Canada in the 1980s with a thirst for two-wheeled pedal adventures and loving the music being played on local rock radio stations. Early life had many ups and downs which he attributes to broader circumstances such as economic forces and little in the way of family ties. Later he earned himself a bachelor’s and master’s degree in a social science field which fueled his interest in socio-economic theory. Currently he lives happily in a small city north-east of his hometown with his wife and young son where he enjoys writing about his life’s experiences.
