Trevor's Story
Life
Wow, an entire life bio in less than 4000 characters... OK, the really short "Cliff's Notes" version: left Staunton in '87, traveled around the world a bit in the Air Force, and met some amazing people - got married, went to college (I have a habit of doing things out of order) - have three beautiful daughters, got divorced, started my own business - doing exceptionally well, in fairly good health and enjoying life, lived in Colorado with my girls for 25 years, and recently returned to the Saint Louis area. Yep, that's 30 or so years in a nutshell! :-)
School
Staunton (and the surrounding area) holds some of the most interesting memories of my life... Memories of amazing high points, and ugly low points... but the bad seems to fade with time, and all you remember are the late-night country cruises, the summer nights that never seemed to end, the relationships that felt all-encompassing... and the great friends that I made throughout that time.
Wow... if that doesn't sound like a John Cougar Mellencamp song, I don't know what does... :-)
College
W...Expand for more
ell, what can I say about college? I was working full time, taking a full load of college-level courses, and a father of three daughters to boot - I can't say I actually remember too much from those two years... they were hard, but it all paid off in the long run. Now if I could just get those student loans paid off already... :-)
Workplace
I currently own and operate my own graphic design / Internet design firm, called The Zen Orange (formerly Masinelli Design Studio). You can find me online pretty much anywhere.
Military
My time in the Air Force was amazing - the tour in the Azores alone was an experience I will never forget! (A toast to my friends who also spent time on "The Rock" and survived - may the memories of "uphill rain", Praia and "The Fireplace" stay with us forever!)
I grew up really fast in the military, and experienced / saw things during my tour of duty that other people only dream of. To all the young folks out there -- I highly recommend serving your country; it is a great experience, and it will change your life, for the better.
