| About Me | During high school I attended South East Career Center to study carpentry. After high school I framed new homes and multi-family apartment buildings and condominiums for four years. I enlisted in the US Army in 1983 and spent 3 years in Karlsruhe Germany working as a bridge crewman in the 502 Engineer Company. I spent approximately 6 month of that time in Mali West Africa in 1985 in support of the World Aid movement for starving children in Africa. We were 15 Bridge crewmen engineers sent to a little town called Gao in the Sahara Desert to build and operate a military raft to cross trucks loaded with donated food from all over the world across the Niger River. I got out of the Army in 1986 and joined the Ohio Army National Guard and enrolled at The Ohio State University. I graduated four years later and went into new home construction. I worked for 10 years as the Warranty Manager for Qualstan Homes then 8 years as a site superintendent and operations manager at Dominion Homes. In 2005 I deployed to Iraq in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom as a Civil Engineer in the 16th Engineer Brigade and spent 15 months away from my family. I was stationed in Baghdad at Camp Liberty and we supported the 4th Infantry Division as the Division Engineers. After my return I left Dominion homes and started working full time for the Ohio Army National Guard as the State Design and Project Management Branch Chief.
