Other Sides & Dimensions:
What hobbies or interests, other than riding? I'm a Northside Middle School coach and I love to race slotcars.
What's your worst/best memory of high school and why? My best was that I made 2nd team state in football as a junior. The worst was just
having to go to school at all...
What was your favorite pet you had as a child and why? I had a German Shepherd named JD. He went everywhere with me.
What is the most rewarding experience you have had and what made it so? My coaching at middle school. I really like to see the young
men grow and excel in doing what they love.
What is the best thing that has ever happened to you? My daughter being born.
What is the most embarrassing moment of your life? I was playing softball outfield. A pop fly hit right to me. I didn't even take a step, and
missed the ball. It hit me square in the face and blood went everywhere!
If you could travel to anywhere in the world, where would it be? I'd love to go to the Sturgis Bike Rally on the bike just once.
If you had the chance to go back in time for 24 hours, where and when would you go? I'd go back to high school and strap the pads on one
more time!
If you knew today was your last day on Earth, how would you spend it? I would spend it with all my family and friends.
Who or what inspires you and why? My wife, Michelle, and owning my own business. I would do anything to take care of them both.
If you had one word to describe yourself, what would it be? AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!
