About Me

Born in Green Bay, Wisconsin, I grew up in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula.
I attended college at Michigan Technological University in Houghton, Michigan. While there, I earned a Bachelor of Science Degree in Electrical Engineering and am a registered professional engineer.
I've lived in the north and the south and found our way to Minneapolis in the spring of 2019.
I am a follower of Christ first and foremost, for I can do all things through Him who strengthens me (Phil 4:13). At the end of the day I am thankful for the many blessings that I have received even though I might not have been worthy of receiving them.
Running is one of my many passions, but it is only what I do, and does not define who I am. Running has made me a confident and strong man, but it also has made me humble to the gifts that I have been given. I try to return the gift to others through mentoring or coaching newer runners and passing on to them what others have passed on to me. I truly enjoy to spend time on rugged mountainous trails far off the beaten path.
I am married to a wonderful woman who is my soulmate.
I love to spend time with my beagle Dawson’s Creek Josephine Lillian Potter (Fiina) and dearly miss Prisoner of Azkaban Sirius Beagle (Siri).
