I graduated from Texas Tech in 1993 with a Degree in Ag. Education. I got married in 1993 and worked for the Ag. Extension Service, first in Decatur, TX and then in Rockwall. My daughter Hannah was born in May of 1995. Her mom and I divorced in 1996, and my daughter lives in Lubbock, but we see each other very often. While in Rockwall, my cousin's husband and I started our own business called AEM, we provided corporate aircraft interior services and officed at Love Field. It was a great learning experience, but we only made it for a year and a half. That venture helped me to realize that my passion was sales! I started working for Software Spectrum in 1996, doing inside sales, worked up thru the ranks, eventually selling outsourced help desk solutions and corporate IT support. I loved being in the IT Industry, and have been ever since! I met my wife Karrie at Software Spectrum in 1997. I went to work for Sterling Commerce selling managed services centered around software implementations. I then began my career in the staffing industry in 1999, working for CDI, selling IT Staffing and Services. Karrie and I were married in November of 2000, and bought our first home near Frisco, TX. I was with CDI for 5 years before moving to my current position at Volt Technical Resources as Business Development Manager. I sell IT and Engineering Staffing, Services, and Managed Programs in the Dallas market. My son Ryan was born in October of 2004. We built a new home in August of 2007 in Frisco. My son Jake was born in May of 2008. He was born 2 1/2 months early and spent quite a bit of time in the hospital, 100 days actually! He was born with 2 congenital heart defects, and had three surgeries, but he is doing perfectly fine today, and all is well with him! It was a very trying year for our family, and certainly something we never expected, but he is a great baby, and has taught us many things, and our family has only grown stronger because of it. We love living in the Dallas area, there is always something to do, and I enjoy the hustle and bustle, but it sure is nice to visit Idalou, where things are a bit slower and laid back! I have alot of interesting companies as accounts, including Southwest Airlines, Fujitsu, Perot Systems, and FedEx. My wife, Karrie, is a Business Account Manager for a software company, FileMaker, which is owned by Apple. We will be married 9 years this November. We like to travel and have been to London, Paris, New York, San Francisco, Chicago, Cabo San Lucas, Cancun, Hawaii, and all over Texas! We really enjoy our children and spending time with them. My daughter Hannah is in 8th grade at Terravista Middle School in Frenship. She is a cheerleader, and typical 13 year old girl! My son Ryan attends Primrose School in Frisco, and Jake stays at home for now, until he is a bit older. We have a great life, and have been very blessed! Looking forward to seeing everyone and catching up.
