about me

My name is Larry Thiele. I am a 61-year old white male native of Wisconsin, USA., married with four children over the age 21. By profession I am an electrical engineer with a masters degree from the University of Wisconsin. My career has included about 20 years working for a large corporation. Since 1991 I have been self-employed as a consulting engineer and software developer.

I have dealt with acne since age 13. I have had no other unusual health problems, been exposed to no unusual environmental conditions, and have experienced a typical American diet throughout my lifetime. I suspect there are large numbers of today's acne sufferers that could describe their physical situation similarly.

All of my children are susceptible to acne to some degree and have had success controlling it exactly as I have done. Knowing they can avoid any serious problems at a very early age gives me pure satisfaction even though I went through hell with this thing myself.
