I was born and raised in a beautiful small town in Ohio named Urbana. My hometown is a charming, wonderful town. It is a small town, but it is close enough to  the larger cities of Ohio to facilitate ease of travel to these cities!

 

I graduated from Urbana High School in 1985. After graduation I went into the United States Marine Corps. After the Marines I returned home to Urbana and went to work. 

 

Over the years I became a restaurant manager. And one of my proudest accomplishments was becoming a volunteer firefighter/EMT for the North Lewisburg fire department.

 

I moved to central Florida in 2004. I enjoyed Florida, but eventually in 2014 I moved back to Ohio. I missed my family and friends tremendously. So, I succumed to the siren call of my hometown!
