I've had a very blessed life with so many things to be thankful for. I worked in radio for 22 years at various stations in the Northwest including KETO FM Seattle, KWIQ AM&FM & KBSN AM/KDRM FM Moses Lake, KPQ AM/FM Wenatchee and KGW AM/KINK FM & KUPL AM/FM in Portland. My jobs included working as a top 40, m.o.r. & country d.j., play-by-play sports announcer, advertising account executive, national sales manager and station manager. I later worked in ad sales for The Columbian Newspaper in Vancouver...and for the past 12 years in cable ad sales in Portland for TCI, AT&T and Comcast. I took an early retirement package from Comcast in May, 2008. Along the way, I was blessed with two wonderful daughters, Ann & Debbie, who both live and work in the Portland area. Ann works in route sales for CINTAS and Deb is just starting a career in radiology as an x-ray tech for Legacy Hospital in Portland. My lovely wife Beth and I have been married since January, 2001. In November of 2000, we opened one of the first Curves franchises in Vancouver. We went on to open a total of six and currently own and operate two Curves in Vancouver and two in the Longview area. |

Just being part of an incredible high school experience. It was a total blast...going to ball games, hanging out with friends, buying and selling cars, tearing up the dance floor, going to parties, dating, road trips, working at A&P and Dag's and scrambling to get a passing grade ...what a great time! |
