After graduating
from high school I attended Lake Area Tech in Watertown enrolling in the
auto mechanics course. About a year later I graduated and took a job at a
Chrysler dealership and worked there for about 2 1/2 years.
In 1974 I took another job working as an engine machinist in an automotive parts store. I was very fortunate to work under a man that taught me the engine machinist trade. In 1980 I decided to open a business of my own as an engine machinist. I ran this business for about 14 years and decided to sell out and try something else. In the fall of 1994 I was offered a job as one out of six instructors in the Lake Area Diesel Tech Program. I took this job and am currently still working there.

Working at Lake Area Tech has
been a neat experience because I have the son's of some of our high school
classmates in my classes.
In 1974 I was married to my wife Linda and we have 3 grown boys, ages 26, 28, 30, . This last year we have been blessed with a granddaughter, now 8 months old, and a grandson who is now 11 months old. Grandkids are great. |
