About Me

I currently live in Lawrence, Kansas and have for over 28 years. Before that I grew up in Ottawa, Kansas a little town just 20 minutes south of Lawrence.

I'm married to a wonderful woman Emily. We have 4 children, a dog, and two cats. So besides my work life being busy my home life is as well! Currently we have a kiddo in every level of school: elementary, middle school, high school, and college.

When I'm not busy working or hanging out with family and friends I keep myself busy by cooking and the occasional foray into photography and music.
