After graduating from Highland Park High School (HPHS), I enrolled at WASHBURN UNIVERSITY (WU), Topeka, Kansas. I was a student athlete and played baseball four (4) years at WU. I earned my Bachelor's Degree in Criminal Justice, graduating on May 18, 1980. I worked a couple Cooperate jobs for several years after graduation. From January 1984 to May 1989, was employed as a Police Officer, Olathe, Kansas Police Department. From May 21, 1989 to May 31, 2014, I was employed as a Special Agent of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI). My Career & Life goal was to become an FBI Agent. A very highly and competitive sought after job. In 1989, there were only 600 agent openings Nationwide, with about 65,000 qualified application's. Needeless to say, my odds weren't good for employment. But with the exceptional education I received at HPHS & WU, I received my appointment as a New Agent hire. I did my 16 weeks of Agent Training, at the FBI Academy, Quantico, Virginia. During my 25 year career, I worked numerous high profile cases and criminal investigations. I've traveled the US and a lot of the World, with the FBI. I'll admit, "I did BAD things, to very BAD people". But all legal, via our Constitution and Federal Law. As an Agent, I swore to Protect & Defend the Constitution of United States, against All enemies both Foreign and Domestic!! And that is Exactly what I did. It was not only an extreme Honor, but a sincere Privilege, to serve the greatest country in the World!! Two years after retiring, I went back to work and reinvented myself, employed by Kansas Attorney General Derek Schmidt. From November 2016 to December 2021, I was employed as a Special Agent at AG's Office, Topeka Kansas. I worked within the Fraud & Litigation Division (FALD), investigating Elder Abuse cases, throughout the State of Kansas. A sobering dilemma & current crisis. May God Bless and Protect our elderly folks, throughout the Nation. Now retired, I'm enjoying Life in the Ozarks of Missouri. I spend a lot of time on my BIG boat at Table Rock Lake, near Branson, Missouri !! I live South of Springfield, Missouri. Life is GOOD !!!
