After BHS I graduated from CSM with the police officer standards and training certificates and worked at the police department there. Then I transferred to CSU Stanislaus and received a business management degree. After a year and a half of work, I started law school at Baylor University in Waco, Texas. I fell in love with the area, met my wife, got married and started a family. I have discovered lucky 13... 13th birthdays include my son (jan), me (feb), mother in law (may), and best man Todd Feldman (aug). Our wedding anniversary is November 13. I have been lifting weights now for more than 25 years. I played lots of softball after high school and have a couple of city championship trophies and am the current lawyers player-coach in our annual charity game against the Waco doctors. I took up bowling in college and have one ABC certified, league sanctioned 299 game in 1992 and then I promptly retired from bowling. I took up golf in 2004 and became addicted immediately. I'm still seeking that elusive hole-in-one. My best scores to date are breaking 90 three times (88, 87, 88).
My father passed away in June 2008 and after his funeral I returned to the BHS campus for the first time in at least 10-15 years. A lot has changed there!
For the last seven years I have lived "just down the road" from President Bush. We see lots of crazy aircraft flying around. In 2004 I got to be down the ballot from him when I ran for 74th District Court judge. I lost a close race to a 12 year incumbent, but I did get to meet lots of people.

Mr. Morgan's art of the film and making Frisco Vice and some of our other "Torch Corporation" films. Mr. DeVos and his basketball and softball skills - seemed like he could sink 100% of his shots from half court and hit a home run right and left handed every time, even with that squishy softball we used back then. Ms. Alpers and her ability to motivate me and help me realize that I could succeed in sports. Mr. "Devo" Devincenzi because he kept class interesting. All my math and computer teachers because I had straight A's in math and computers from 7th grade all the way through college and the skills they taught me are still used every day. My English teachers, though I wish they put less emphasis on reading - I hated reading the assigned books and never read any of them - but I was always getting A's in writing and F's in reading, for an overall C grade LOL But my spelling and grammar skills are used every day now. Mr. Ness because during high school I thought I'd grow up to be a doctor - never thought I'd take a u-turn and become a lawyer!
