I originally grew up in Maine and lived there for 24 years. After earning my private pilots license(fixed wing) I moved to Florida where I trained as a firefighter and medical responder at Cape Canaveral Fire/Rescue. I met my wife and we had our 1st son, Tyler, before moving to Wisconsin in 1997. In 1998 we had our second son Alex. Currently I work for a major glass manufacture as a Quality Assurance Tech, but have moved into a application developer of sorts using Excel and VBA. In my personal life I have earned EMT license in Wisconsin and currently the chief of EMS in our small community. I also enjoy fishing, archery, amateur radio (W9CFV) and flying fixed or rotary wing aircraft.
