About the author
Dr. Pace grew up in West Texas in the 1950s & 60s and realized early in life that he thought about the world differently than the community around him. Constantly pushing cultural boundaries - he left home to find people and places that would embrace his long hair and unusual ideas.
He studied human factors & industrial engineering at Texas A&M, later earning his second PhD in clinical psychology while raising his two daughters.
Both fields satisfied his interest in using science to better understand human behavior. Along the way he found that the objective, experimental spirit also existed in eastern philosophy, sparking an interest in Buddhism.
Dr. Pace now lives in Buffalo, New York - close to his two adult daughters and young grandchildren. He works in private practice as a Clinical Psychologist - specializing in a cognitive behavioral approach to anger management, adult and childhood attention disorders, and other mental health challenges.
He still refuses to assume that the common thinking is the "best" thinking and trusts the empirical scientific approach to show the real bottom line.
In "Moments Out of Time" his professional skills for observation & reflection are directed at his own daily life using the time honored framework of Japanese Haiku.
