After WAO, I went to Concordia and graduated in December 2002 with a degree in Healthcare Administration. Moved out to Portland, OR while Kristel went to optometry school at Pacific University. We got married in July 2003 and ended up living out there for 3 years, while I worked a couple of different jobs, the longest working for T-Mobile. (Even got Ross to move out there and work at the same store with me.) Yeah, I was "that guy", hocking cell phones to people. Not the greatest job, but it paid the bills.

Kristel's last year of school consisted of 4, three month internships at different clinics around the country. Her first one was in Portland, so we stayed there. The second one was in Seattle, so we moved there for three months. Then we moved back to the Twin Cities. While we were here, I got got a job at HealthPartners, in January 2006, we bought a house in Woodbury, MN and then, after Kristel's internship here ended, she moved to Tucson, AZ for three months to finish her last internship. Once she finished, she moved back here to MN and now works for Associated Eye Care in Woodbury.

Our son, Cohen, was born August 2007, and has been keeping us busy ever since.
