“In the future days, which we seek to make secure, we look forward to a world founded upon four essential human freedoms. The first is freedom of speech and expression. The second is freedom of every person to worship God in his own way. The third is freedom from want…. The fourth is freedom from fear.”
Franklin D. Roosevelt (1882-1945) 32nd President of the United States

I was born and grew up in the Northwest. I joined the Navy after high school and trained in nuclear power. After 6 years in the Navy, 4 years of which were spent serving on Submarines, I got out and started a career in facilities maintenance. I met my wife, Kris, the fall of 1999 and we were married a year later. Our son, Noah, was born 11 months after that. My daughter, Kaara was born in Jiangxi Province, PRC.
