    BIO

    I am in the construction business. I own & operate, with a business partner, a specialty construction business “Underground Boring Systems”.

    We specialize in Directional Drilling, which is a way to install utility lines without trenching.

    I was born in Covina, CA and now live in Clovis, Ca. (near Fresno)

    I have been married for 31 years (wife -Lauri) we have 4 children. (3 girls & 1 boy - oldest 30 youngest 18)

    My favorite skate race would have to be Athens to Atlanta.

    I seem to keep busy all season with cycling & skating.

    I enjoy playing guitar & bass & singing and also writing & recording songs.

    I enjoy playing in the worship band at church. I also do a lot of vegetable gardening and have a beehive so I am a small time beekeeper. My wife & I also enjoy working on & fixing up our 110 yr. old Victorian house.

    My favorite band would be ʻ“The Raspberries” a power pop band from the early seventies. (you might remember the hits “I wanna be with you” or “Go all the Way”).  The band featured Eric Carmen as the lead singer who went on to a successful solo career after the final breakup of the band. I enjoy many types and genres of music so there are many others I could list but you would get bored really fast.

    My favorite movie I think is “The Truman Show” with Jim Carey.

    My favorite place to go on a short vacation is Avila Beach on the Central Coast.

    My favorite kind of food would be Mexican food.

    I have been skating and competing in speed skating events since 1995. So that would be 16 years.
