Background Information

Being born and raised in the Red Wing area, I feel fortunate to live next to the Mississippi River and try to get out and enjoy it as often as time permits. My wife Patty and I have three children and are active members of United Lutheran Church, as well as, several volunteer organizations. My hobbies include boating, camping, sailing, hiking and spending time with my family. Except for odd jobs during high school and college, I have been self-employed all my life, which has given me a great appreciation for hard work and a strong dedication to serving others."
