Hobbies

I am most proud to be cofounder, contributor and former board member to a non profit organization in Ohio which has provided information targeted but not limited to youth in my local school district regarding mental illness and teen suicide. The organization was able to establish and fully fund a toll free no questions asked school hotline to the entire school district with the motto "If you see or hear something concerning, say something". The organization has also been able to provide many college scholarships holds multiple charitable events each year which in turn provide relief to persons and families in need.

In my free time I enjoy most any outdoor activities, working my K-9 companion Raven and restoring cars and motorcycles.
