I grew up on a 200 acre dairy farm near Black River Falls, WI and graduated from Black River Falls High School in 1982.
After high school I attended UW-Stout in Menomonie, WI majoring in Industrial Technology/Manufacturing Engineering. During my college years I worked summers for Lunda Construction bridge builders as well as on the family dairy farm. I graduated from UW-Stout in May of 1987 with a Bachelor of Science degree.
After college I went to work for Food Engineering Service, a manufacturer of stainless steel food processing equipment in Los Angles, CA.
A few years later we moved back to Wisconsin and I accepted a position with Badger Mining Corporation, a Silica sand mining company, for a period of 26 years, while taking up a Real Estate career in 2013.
In 2017 I became a Real Estate Broker and started my own real estate firm, "Badger State Realty".
I specialize in Homes, Farms, Commercial Properties and Vacant land.
We currently live near Osseo WI on a 160 acre hobby farm.
