Born in land-locked Chicago, Lance moved to Florida in his early 20s to be near the ocean and next to the flora and fauna he loves. Family vacations on the coasts of the Atlantic, Pacific, and Gulf of Mexico instilled a life long passion for all the creatures and organisms in the ocean.
As an adult he used his skills as a computer artist and web developed to craft powerful websites to help promote noble causes, like local non-profits and political candidates, as one of the principals of MityMo Creative. He also cofounded a company that designed and produced 3D printers for schools and libraries.
