Personal Highlights

When I am not at work, I am spending time with family and friends. I love all sports, but typically listen to them on the radio so I’m not sitting idle. My favorite time of year is summer because my family tries to get to the Dells at least 4 times a year.

When I’m not working, I like to go golfing with a couple buddies, hiking, fishing, and spending time with all the animals at my house (2 cats and 2 dogs). Other things I do in my spare time is go to the gym and hang out with friends and family whenever the opportunity presents itself!

Personal Highlights

When I’m not working, I’m spending quality time with my family. We love anything outdoors, but especially camping, hiking, and fishing. I am very active, and enjoy things that keep me moving. I like to paint, write (poetry and other works) and doing DIY projects. We try to never have an unintended dull moment.
