Where were you born and/raised? Muskingum County, Ohio
What was your first job? Bailing hay
You have two weeks off and a plane ticket to go anywhere. Where would you go? Take my wife to Italy
What would you like your fellow COTS partners to know about you? I want to expand my knowledge and learn as much as I can. I have much to learn in this field and look forward to learning new things. I enjoy looking at issues and thinking outside the box to correct or at a minimum improve the outcome.
What made you decide to be a physician/nurse/EMT/emergency manager (whatever your chosen career path)? I arrived in healthcare later in life. My first job was making baskets for 18 years. I assisted with the care of my and my wife's grandparents. This gave me the great desire to make a career change in 2010. I wish I would have made that change years prior after entering healthcare. However, my grandpa always said hindsight is 20/20, and that is absolutely true.

If you could be any superhero, who would you be? Iron Man for his intelligence to resolve problems

What was the first concert you attended? AC/DC
