Current Occupation -- Purchasing Agent

Past Hometowns -- Paso Robles.

What I Enjoy about Team K-Man -- I enjoy the friendliness and overwhelming encouragment. Everyone has been great about making me feel welcome regardless of my strength (or as it feels sometimes, lack-there-of). I also enjoy the diversity of the group. It was fun going to the my first meeting and seeing people from all different walks of life. 

Other Interests and Hobbie -- I am a HUGE baseball( GO ANGELS! )and college football( GO TROJANS! ). Since most of my effort goes to the kids, there isn't much time to do a lot of other things. But that is fine with me, I wouldn't change it for the world.

Some Favorite Places -- Angel Stadium, Oregon, what little I have seen of the eastern part of the country I have really liked, the peacefulness of my bike or when I am running with our dog.

A goal that I have -- to do another century and to run a 10k and a half-marathon.

Brag Box -- I'm not really much of a bragger. I aspire to much more than I have already accomplished.

Tidbits of Information

1. 1.I used to work at Bikemasters( when it was Bikemasters) back in the day.

2. I used to really hate running, but I was drawn to it for that very same reason. After giving it an honest try, I find it ddly relaxing.

3. I used to make fun of guys who wore spandex and shaved their legs and now I am one.

4. If I hadn't gone through the training and worked at the bike shop for that short time, I probably would not have met my wife-to-be.

Anything Else You’d Like to Tell Us - Thank you everyone on the Team who has made me feel very welcomed. You encourage and inspire me to greater things. God bless you all.
