Before moving back to Illinois, I served in the Navy for 7 years.    Proudly, I am a veteran of Desert Storm.  During my deployment I visited ports in France, Monte Carlo, Palma, Portsmouth England, Hiafa Israel, Jedda Saudia Arabia, Jerusalem, and Dubai UAE.  I also had the opportunity to conduct flight operations in the Atlantic, Meditarranian Sea, through the Suez Canal to the Red Sea, and the Persian Gulf.

The Navy gave me the opportunity to work on military aircraft.  I worked for Boeing in St. Louis before the company experienced massive layoffs.  There I worked on production of the F-15.

I recently finished the powerplant program at Southwestern Illinois College, and now I am an FAA licensed A & P mechanic.

Aside from being an all around good guy and an excellent aircraft mechanic, I am also a family man.  I have a wife, Louise (who designed this site by the way) and three children: Dakota, Edward, and Carter.

Here's my fourth child: The Mustang.  A 93' and a certified killer of Chevys.  It ran a screaming 12.97 at 104 mph at the quarter mile.  I haven't been to the drag strip in a while now.  Have to get back there soon.
