To fight back, I decided to become a "heart health consumer advocate" and began blogging under the pseudonym "HeartHawk." I am a no-nonsense numbers guy, an engineer, MBA, and for the real numbers geeks, a Six Sigma Black Belt (a quality improvement accreditation best described as "statistics on steroids"). I demand hard science and solid data to back up claims and theories.  I am also a heart disease sufferer who watched under-diagnosed and under-treated heart disease take my mother, her brother, and their father. One minute they were alive and symptom free, the next they were dead. No good-byes, just gone. So, I resolved that I will die some other way. This blog is about my journey to save myself and others, unearthing advances and atrocities, separating hope from hype, and delivering the unvarnished truth about curing heart disease, both good and bad. So, hold on tight. I promise you a hell of a ride!


Looking out for your heart health,
HeartHawk
