I was born in April of 1961 in a small coastal town of Santa Cruz, California. I was married in 1988 and we had 2 children: Christopher and Laura. I lost my wife due to Breast Cancer in March of 2012. After High School in 1979, I went off to a Heating, Ventilation, Air-conditioning & Refrigeration (HVACR) trade school in Phoenix, Arizona. Upon returning to my hometown, I resumed my job performing Plumbing, Heating, A/C and commercial refrigeration. In 1985, I joined the Plumbers and Pipefitters Union where I spent the next 5 years in an apprenticeship course and graduated 1993 to become an Instructor of the Pipefitters trade in 1993. I graduated from the United Association of Plumbers and Pipefitters Union Instructors training program in 1998.
