Just a little bit about me:

I was born in Bellevue, Washington (a suburb of Seattle) and lived in 
Redmond, WA until I was 14 years old.  When I was 14, my family decided we 
were sick of the rain and moved to Glendale, AZ.  I went to High School at 
Cactus High School.  After High School, I decided to go to Brigham Young 
University in Provo, Utah where I received both an academic and athletic 
scholarship to play baseball.  After one year of college, I decided to serve 
as a missionary for my church for two years and was sent to Japan.  I came 
back after that time and finished my final three years of schooling at BYU.  
While in college, I met and married my beautiful wife Ashley.  We graduated 
at the same time.  I graduated with a degree in History and a minor in 
Japanese.  My wife was accepted to Dental School and decided to go to Temple 
University in Philadelphia, PA.  We moved to Philly and lived there for four 
years while she pursued her degree.  I worked as a substitute teacher for two 
years and was hired as a teacher for two years.  After my wife graduated in 
May 2009, we decided to move to Arizona.  We now live in Glendale.
