Born and raised in the great state of Iowa. I love it here and plan to live out my days here. I was born in August of 1972 and I am a child of the 80’s. I vividly remember the day Ronald Reagan was shot and the day we invaded Iraq under Bush 41. I joined the United States Air Force in 1991, going to basic in San Antonio, TX and being stationed at Elendorf AFB in Anchorage, AK.
After 1 enlistment tour I returned home to Iowa. Instead of returning to my roots in Derby, Iowa I took up residence in Grinnell. I worked for a short time at a book store and then stocking shelves at the local grocery store.
In 1997 I was hired into my first factory job as a Press Operator at a company that specializes in custom injection molding parts for the Automotive, Agricultural, Appliance, and Consumer industries. It didn’t take long for me to work my way up from the floor to where I am now, Quality Engineer/Supervisor.
I am an avid (addict) computer gamer. My current addiction, and has been since December 2004, is World of Warcraft. My main character is Amradorn, a Tauren Druid. I am the guild leader of Foederati and I also write a WoW blog called Warcraft Field Repots.
