I was born and raised in Burlington, where I graduated from Burlington High School in 1975. I then went on to earn a BS degree in electrical engineering from the Milwaukee School of Engineering. After a rewarding career in the electrical contracting business, I retired in 2022.
My passion for audio fidelity has been a constant in my life since childhood. At age 10, I would place my small transistor radio under my pillow and turn the volume up to make the bass frequencies more prominent. By age 14, I had built a stereo system worth over a thousand dollars.
At age 38, my life changed when I became a Christian, and in 2015, I began attending LifeBridge Church.
I’ve been happily married to my wife, Janet, for 45 years. Together, we have three adult children and four wonderful grandchildren.
