Personal Background

For those of you who are interested, I thought I would tell you a little about myself.

I’m married and have four children. Our youngest is in tenth grade and the three oldest are on their own. My wife, Karen, is a special education teacher at a local school district, Blue Ridge in Lakeside, and has taught there since 1985.

Aside from the normal routine of work and household/family duties, my wife and I enjoy outdoor activities such as walking and skiing. I also "like" to work out at a local health club and play raquetball.

Between work, family and working out, there isn’t much time for anything else.
