I was born in Council Bluffs, IA and my family moved to Omaha, NE six months later. I spent most of my youth in Omaha and then moved out to Tehachapi, CA in the summer before my Junior Year of High School. I gradudated from Tehachapi in '93 and played baseball (rookie) for the Angels. Afterwards I moved back to the Midwest and went to college at the University of South Dakota. Now I'm married and have three daughters living in Sioux Falls, SD.
