Spent the first ten years after high school living in San Francisco Bay Area. Playing Rugby and traveling and living around the world to play, in additions trained and learned how to be a construction project manager and run a business. Moved to Portland Oregon in 1991 after retiring to start my permanent work carrier. I owned a commercial painting business until January 2000 when I joined my current company as a construction project manager. I'm currently based in Portland but work throughout the west coast as PM building new hotels. I currently spend my free time either traveling or trying to figure out where to travel to next (anywhere that is sunny and has a beach or the Southwest). Other then work I spend my time with girl friend Melanie enjoying Portland, hiking and getting out and about as much as possible. Summer times are spent playing baseball and spending time with my nephew, niece, family and friends. Life as a whole has been a challenge much more so than I thought it would have been but all in all good with a bright future still ahead.
Update: Married Melanie in 2009 and just returned from Ethiopia (December 2017) where we adopted our new son Yadeta. Now we have one more person to travel and explore with.
