I was born in San Diego, where my father was in the US Navy. When he retired from the service, my family and I moved to the Chicago. I attended grade school through high school here in Illinois. It was during high school that I operated carnival rides at a local children's theme park and delivered pizza. After high school, I joined the Navy and became an electronics technician, where my main job was the maintenance and operation of the controls for the nuclear reactors on my ship. During high school and through my navy career I became interested in computers and taught myself everything I know today. While in the service I participated in Operation Desert Shield/Desert Storm. I have been to the Middle East, Singapore, Thailand, the Phillippines, Hawaii, Ecuador, Panama and Victoria, BC (Canada). Inside the US I have been to: Illinois, Wisconsin, Indiana, Ohio, Kentucky, Tennessee, South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Iowa, Nebraska, Wyoming, Utah, Idaho, Nevada, Missouri, Oklahoma, Texas, Arizona, Washington and California. I currently reside in Illinois near Chicago by myself. I have never been married and have no children.
