After being in the Air Force, I returned to Washington State and joined the Fire Service. I worked in 4 Fire Departments across Washington State and for the Washington State Fire Academy and the Washington State Fire Marshall's office. I then took a position working with a Fire Department In Mexico. When my best friend was diagnosed with terminal cancer I returned to Skagit Valley to spend Thad's last 2 years closer to him. After he passed I went to work at West View Elementary to be close to my daughter Hannah who is in the Dual Language Program there. I also track down those pesky little class-skippers, and having been the EXPERT at cutting class, my students get very frustrated that I can track them down so easily.
