I was born and raised in upstate New York for 16 years. After my father received a job promotion I
moved to Lititz, Pennsylvania in 1985 where I graduated from Warwick Highschool in 1987. After an
abbreviated summer break I enlisted in the U.S.Army. For the first fours years I was an Attack
Helicopter Mechanic, but then finished my final four years of active military service as a Computer
Programmer and Systems Analyst. During the course of my military career I traveled abroad to 19
different states and served in one overseas tour in South Korea. I have been happily married since
May 2006, but my wife and I have been together for over 6 years. I have two amazing children. My
musically-talented son who will be joining the Air Force later this fall with a focus on Mechanical
Engineering and my artistic daughter who is a fourth grade student this year at Kissell Hill Elementary.
After having worked in the retail industry for about ten years I finally decided it was time to move
back in the direction I had left the military in, so I went back to school and in March of 2006 I
graduated from ITT Technical Institute in Mechanicsburg with a degree in Computer Networking
Systems. Not too long afterwards I landed a job with one of the top telephone companies in Pennsylvania
where I continue my employment today. Whenever possible I try to spend as much time with my family -
mostly weekends. I enjoy going places and just hanging out with my son and also taking my daughter to
Lititz Springs Park to feed the ducks or just going for walks with her through downtown Lititz. When my
wife and I don't have the kids we like to drive around and go sight-seeing. Last year we took the family
down to Sea World and Universal Studios! It was a blast! Just check out some of the photos below!
