Avid outdoors man

I am an outdoor freak caught in a concrete world!

Family Centered. Married to Jenny for 32 years. Daughter Kaitlin 25, who is a nurse at the VA Hospital in Milwaukee. Son Sam 20, who is an EMT getting his paramedic training during a skip year from college. One Black Lab – Ruger. Both children are on the front line of this pandemic.

Avid outdoorsman – Enjoy hiking, camping and hunting or anything outside, including fishing when my son takes me.

Labrador guy. Love to watch my Labrador hunt pheasants and do what he was bred, and trained to do.

Handyman, Fixit guy, builder of things but never enough tools.

Lake Time – Wake surfing and spending quality time with family and friends

My uncompromising work ethic comes from working on the family farm in Waukau, Wisconsin and a mother who believed 12 hours was only half a day.

I have a passion for helping people reach their full potential and have been blessed with the talent and experience to be good at it. 

I take the hard right over the easy wrong
