I was born in Appleton and grew up on Fremont Street in a house I still own. I went to Richmond, Madison, and Appleton East, and currently live on Kernan Avenue with my wife and two daughters.

           In 1988, I started working in the computer industry. In 1997, I founded Integrated Solutions Inc. and for the last 27 years, I have been a business owner in the city of Appleton providing Managed I.T services and hardware systems for Wisconsin business and municipalities.

For the last 5 years I’ve been a volunteer mentor for my daughter’s High School STEM & VEX Robotics programs. We help students build amazing competition robots, sending some teams to the Worlds Tournament, and turning out future engineers every year.
