Married my wife, Angie, on March 20, 2001.  We moved to Savage, Minnesota in 2004 and recently relocated in Bloomington, MN this past Spring.  We have one daughter, Grace Kelly (18) and one rescue dog, Shelby.  My wife and I enjoy both cooking and traveling.  Our favorite place to go is Las Vegas.  We don't gamble, but we do enjoy the food, the shows, the weather (in winter), and the people watching.  When I am not in the kitchen or on the road, you can find me on my computer or Steam Deck.  My all-time favorite game is Command & Conquer: Red Alert 2, and I am currently enjoying 7 Days to Die, Slay the Spire, and Into the Breach.
