I am originally from Iowa, I grew up on a dairy farm. I have Bachelors degree in Organizational Psychology and an Associates in Business. I have 28 years of retail experience, and before that I was a Crew Chief on a helicopter for the US Army. I am also a proud member of the VFM. During my free time I enjoy painting with oil color, gardening, BBQ/smoking, and cooking. I also spend time working on my project jeep and I love spending time with my dogs.
