Alan Jarvis

After school thought I would follow my fathers footsteps, one guy that I will always look up to! I spent 3 years at Ivy Tech in Indy taking an Ironworking apprenticeship and my 4th year we got our own school where I finished up my classes. I then worked as a journeyman Ironworker until 1999. During that time I also taught blueprint and welding courses for 6 years and had to spend 3 summers at the University of San Diego for an instructor upgrade program where I obtained my CWI lisence to certify and instruct welders. My dad was ready to retire so I soon lost interest in what I was doing so I decided to put my resume in at Daimlerchrysler. I got hired by Daimler in the summer of 1999 as a tradesman and have been there ever since. Well lets get on to the family, I'm married with two awesome sons Hayden Alan Who's 11 who attends Delta schools and Ryan wayne whos going on 4 months would not trade them for the world.I also have a beautiful wife Misty which we've been together since Dec. of 2000 and now married going on three wonderful years. I also have a wonderful step daughter Christian Nicole Strother who is also 11 that attends Blue River in the 6 grade.
We reside almost exactly where I grew up, I built a new house back in 1995 and have been there ever since it seems like I'm always changing something. A home is just as good as you make it, a place to raise and cherish your children!
My wife and I like to travel alot when we are not working, Mexico is our favorite I've been to Mexico over 10 times and each experience is always different. We got married on the beaches of Puerto Vallarta I can't say anything but it was awesome,I spent over 6 months researching everything and for the most part it went real smooth but I would say "lots of red tape". I'll try and post some pictures they turned out good. Well thats enough crap about me lets get to the good stuff.
