Jess: I was born in northern Utah. I have many treasured memories from my childhood years. I enjoyed going on vacations with my family, and flying with my dad. It was wonderful to have a father who was also a private pilot. My high school years were crowned with the title of state champion in my chosen track and field event. After high school, I followed tradition and started college. I never completed college, the winds of fate blew me in a direction I had never really thought about before, Law Enforcement. After doing a little research, and talking with several Law Enforcement Officials, I was trained and certified as a Peace Officer. About this same time, I was married to a wonderful young lady. Now many years later, we have three daughters, a house, car, etc... I have to admit, I'm living about as good of a life as anyone can. I can't say I'm wealthy, as least as far as money is concerned, but in reality, I don't have any room to complain. I will be able to retire in about five years, and am now going back to school to obtain a degree so I can start something new once I retire from Law Enforcement.
