Oh, this, that, and a lot of the other thing....

Went to Nebraska U. for a year and a half (in the Cornhusker Marching Band for two seasons!) then moved to FL to live with the 'rents before attending U. of S. Florida/Tampa as a business, then music major/voice performance.

Did a shload of community theater before finally landing a gig at Disney ("Indiana Jones Epic Stunt Spectacular") for the summer of '90, then a lateral move to Universal Studios ("Ghostbusters", "Blues Brothers" and other various special events) for another two years before I made the move to Gurnee, IL in '93, working at Six Flags/Great America ("Batman Stunt Spectacular") then moving to Chicago proper in late '94.

Been a weird ride since then; various customer service-type jobs, tourguide for Chicago Trolley and Wendella Sightseeing Boat Tours among other things such as working as an extra in a few shot-in-Chicago Hollywood films in the mid-2000s.

Currently unemployed after an eight-year ride with Peggy Notebaert Nature Museum, shut down due to COVID, but doing OK, otherwise!

My younger sister, Tricia, passed away from cancer in April 2021 in the loving arms of her husband, David.

Now working for Bobby's Bike Hike, doing walking food tours of Chicago-centric food. Good money, great tips! (Ended 6/2022)
