Autorenporträt
Pete Kimbell has built a life, and a career, around resilience, problem-solving, and creativity. For decades, he worked in IT service delivery and operations, leading teams through high-stakes challenges where keeping systems reliable under pressure was essential. That same mindset of preparation and calm leadership now fuels his mission as an author: helping individuals and families build the confidence to handle life's unexpected events.Pete's preparedness journey began in the Boy Scouts with the Emergency Preparedness merit badge, and it has been a guiding principle ever since. Today, he and his wife live in a fully off-grid, solar-powered home he designed and built himself-proof that preparedness can be both practical and sustainable. His three-book series, Preparedness for Your Way of Life, Preparedness Guide to Building a New Home, and Preparedness for the Hidden Battle, reflects his holistic approach, showing readers how to prepare their homes, their routines, and their mindset for whatever may come.Beyond writing and resilience, Pete is an advocate for cancer research, an outdoor enthusiast, and an amateur photographer who loves capturing the natural world. He's also an electronic engineer and lifelong tinkerer-an 8-bit computer enthusiast, a proud "surfer" of the personal computer revolution, and even a former Christmas light display extraordinaire. His adventures have taken him mountain climbing and far beyond the desk, blending curiosity, technical skill, and a love of discovery.At the heart of it all, Pete believes preparedness isn't about fear, it's about confidence, peace of mind, and protecting what matters most. Through his writing and his life, he inspires readers to find resilience not only in their homes and systems, but also in themselves.
