Life
I have had a good life thus far. After graduation from Cortez High School I moved to Northern Nevada and worked for a gold mining company for seven years. When I resigned, I was a lead person for a laboratory crew of seven Analytical Lab Techs. Basically, we fire assayed and did chemical testing on bags of dirt and bullion to determine the amount of gold in the samples. It was actually a pretty good job. I met my wife April there in Nevada. We have two children, both girls. April and I are celebrating over 15 years of marriage. When we left Nevada , we moved to Colorado, near Grand Junction. My wife went to college and I worked to support the family. three years later she completed her degree and we decided that I should now further my education.

(International Airline training Academy). I graduated from flight school and became a Flight Instructor for a couple of years. One goal I have always had was to fly in Alaska, during the summer of 2005 I was hired by a small airline in Southeast Alaska. I spent 5 months there. It is B E A U tiful. I love it. After that summer I was hired by Mesa Airlines. I didn't feel that airline was a proper fit for me so I resigned. Now I am flying a jet for a different airline. I love it. I see the country and meet people everywhere.
Hobbies: My POISON tribute band. Yes, we dress up like POISON (Wigs, Make-up, Clothes) and play POISON songs. My band is getting pretty good and has a loyal following. We travel to many western states to play. checkout myspace unskinnybopband
