Erik's Story
Life
Followed our high school counselers advice and went to College where none of my friends or associates went. Got decent grades but was still an accident waiting to happen. Ran aa foul of the law. Dropped out of school to pay lawyers fees, court costs etc. Returned to school but this time at Bellevue Community where I met my best friend in the world and wife to be, Veena Monce. She chased me. I let her. We married in August of 1988. We both transfered our credits to WSU (UW was requiring a freaking 3.8 to get into the ME dept and I only had a 3.6.... Veena got accepted into where ever she applied. She kicked my tail the rest of the way through college. I graduated, 1991 with a BS in Mechanical Engineering and a Minor in Mathematics. I know, 9-1/2 yrs! But I did it. Spent the summer working as a contract diver, repairing underwater structures and machinery. Veena went to g...Expand for more
rad school in SF. I stayed in the area. Got a job at Boeing for 5-1/2 year. Veena graduated with honors (again) and got her MS in IO Psychology. Started working with Prov Med Cntr. We bought a house in North Bend (nope, never saw Brad Pitt) We had a son, Skylar in 1995. I raced cars off an on. I was pretty good with a couple of good placing but it was too expensve. Sold the race cars and went Enduro Karting (go karts that reach speeds of over 150mph!) Fun affordable but dangerous. Changed jobs to Basta Marine in 1997. We had a girl, Kendall in 1998. Racing wasn't so affordable any more. Changed jobs to Bechtel. Moved to TRiCities WA to help design the WTP vitrification plant. Had another little girl, Sadie May in 2003. Still play soccer on occassion. Coach kids sports. Ski. Life is good but I could use some more $ and some more time. Be Strong!
