I was happily enjoying a career as a journalist in Off Road Racing when I was dragged kicking and screaming to the Carson City International in 1984 to service for Clint Heuring/Bill Gutzmann in a Plymouth Fire Arrow. Rode in press stage with John Buffum, Rod Millen, Guy Light (I think) and some VW Golf. How could you not get hooked?

I am hopelessly in love with my wife Mary. We were married in October of 2001; the guest list looked like a rally entry list! I enjoy baking breads, reading John R. Maxim, Harry Potter novels, Richard Marcinko and anything on Charles Lindbergh. I play chess. I enjoy spending time with good friends from rally in social settings. I recently was having major health trouble including heavy weight gain. Turned out to be Sleep Apnea and am recovering quickly with the aid of a CPAP machine I wear at night to help me from stopping breathing in the middle of the night. Anyone who has trouble sleeping, snores extremely loud or has a mate that complains you stop breathing in the night needs to see their doctor to arrange a sleep study. My wife and I enjoy our old Beagle, Zachary, he's 12 years old but still thinks he's a puppy. We have no children, so we spoil the dog rotten.

I work at Performance Waerhouse in Portland, Oregon, selling high performance parts and accessories. I am available to rally anywhere, anytime, Pro, Club or TSD.

I drive a Mitsubishi Lancer OZ Rally Edition on the street and in rallycross events put on by the Oregon Rally Group.
