CURRENT MISSION

Get my kids through high school and off to college, then enjoy some travel time!

ABOUT ME

I am not the typical CSer. I am married with 2 teenage boys and haven't traveled much. I love the outdoors and enjoy most things outside. I love my company and job and I like Dallas, just wish there was more outdoor adventure around here. I'm a huge Steelers fan in the middle of Cowboys country. My wife and I plan to travel once the kids are off to college. I am trying to encourage my kids to do some CS type traveling while in college or when they first get out. I am jealous of all those who are taking advantage of this wonderful experience. I will just have to wait until my 40s before I can do it.

PHILOSOPHY

Smile often. Don't take yourself too seriously. Take care of those around you. When you see someone you know, tell them hi and use their name. Everyone likes to hear their own name.

Music, Movies, and Books

Just finished reading "Night" by Elie Weisel. A good book to keep our lives in perspective.

I enjoy many types of music, the exceptions being country and rap music. I am fortunate that I have very similar music interests with my teenage sons. It is nice to share concerts and music with them.

Action and comedy movies are my preference; although, I enjoy just about any type. I don't get to watch as many movies as I'd like. Current TV includes The Office!, Lost, Chuck, My Name is Earl.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've hiked the Grand Canyon from rim to rim in a day twice. The second time with my 13 & 15 year old sons. I was so proud of them!
