I'm a sales manager for a wholesale nusery in northern Ohio. I live in a lake community surrounded by a state park which I walk my two dogs in as often as possible.
I enjoy political debate and believe in personal responsibility but also a central government more concerned with providing the means to success than maintaining power.
I'm a musician that has been involved with several bands in the area over the years and also a big Browns, Indians and Cavs fan.
I'm an animal lover and environmentally concerned citizen of the world who believes we must do all we can to keep the Earth healthy by maintaining a balanced approach to development.
