Bio
Lukas Klessig lives at the family ranch in Wisconsin, managing the care of forests, fields, gardens and buildings. He also looks after his Mom, monitors the family’s investments and, occasionally, tries to be creative. Words With My Father owes its existence partially to this compulsion, but also to a promise he made to his dying father.
Lukas is a proponent of mental health advocacy, animal welfare, outdoor living and physical activity. He spends winters in southern Florida. His beloved cat Shaddy often loiters nearby, supervising his activities.
Lukas studied history, Spanish and international relations at UW-Madison and FIU. He became an Eagle Scout at 16 and transferred those skills to jobs keeping violent kids safe, handing out menus in business parks, arranging luxury travel and consulting on client marketing for global brands.
Most of his best sentences emerged on many mile walks on quiet roads and trails. His routine includes too much ice cream, bug spray and bushwhacking and too many economics podcasts, worn-out shoes and anti-balding efforts. Lukas counts Australia, Hawaii, the Caribbean and southern Spain as favorite destinations - you get the idea.
He would really like you to read his book and thanks you in advance for any feedback and reviews.
