Most of my professional career has revolved around business development & entreprenuership. I developed 3 patents used in the early days of digital Voicemail in the early 1990s while living in Southern California. I began hearing about this "internet thing" around 1995 and was pulled in 100% by 1996 and moved to Seattle. I co-created LiveBid, a first-to-market Internet service that allowed auction bidding in real-time. LiveBid was acquired by Amazon.com in 1999. My passion for new knowledge moved me into the programming side of the Internet with my development of a web-based scheduling program used by sports officials and leagues. My family relocated to the Big Horn Basin area of Wyoming where I founded a small brewery, in 2013, that specialized in using local ingredients. I enjoy my role, as Marketing Director, with the Midway team. I don't believe I've ever had two days alike, which creates many exciting opportunities!

My wife, Valerie, and I have 4 amazing children and 1 beautiful grandchild. We enjoy sharing adventures with our children, in our own backyard or abroad. I love to dabble in the kitchen and enjoy the successes with family & friends. My professional career has allowed me to pursue my passion for the game of basketball. I have over 25 years of coaching from youth to college and 12 years of officiating high school and collegiate basketball. My days now are spent admiring my children as they participate in athletics and music.
