FAMILY: My big lovable-oaf of a dog, Duke.

EMPLOYMENT: Project Management Analyst for Science Applications International Corporation (SAIC).

A BIT OF LIFE HISTORY: Although I was born in Rapid City, I've spent most of my life in the Missoula area. In the spring of 2002 I graduated from Hellgate High School here in Missoula, and in the spring of 2006 I graduated from the University of Montana. I have a degree in Accounting and a minor in Economics. July of 2008 will mark my seventh year working at the SAIC office. Every winter you can find me on the local ski slopes and every summer I spend relaxing at Flathead Lake.

4X4 VEHICLES:I am currently driving a '96 Jeep Cherokee. Prior to the Jeep I had a '90 GMC Jimmy S15.

IF MONEY WAS NOT AN OBJECT, WHAT WOULD YOU DRIVE OFF ROAD? Modified Jeep Wrangler - not very creative but it's what I want!

SAME QUESTION BUT ON ROAD? Bugatti Veyron

TRAIL OR AREA THAT YOU WOULD LIKE TO RUN SOME TIME? REALISTICALLY: I'd like to go to Moab. I've not yet had the opportunity to make a trip there.

SAME QUESTION BUT UN-REALISTIC? I would love to do some exploring in New Zealand.

FAVORITE TYPE OF FOUR WHEELING? Right now, scenic trips requiring no repairs!

WHAT OTHER THINGS DO YOU LIKE TO DO: Snow skiing, water skiing, back-country horseback riding, hiking with Duke, spending time on the computer, and relaxing at Flathead Lake

FUTURE GOALS IN LIFE? I may go back to school to get my Masters in Accounting and work towards becoming a CPA. Eventually, I wouldn't mind running my own business - although I'm not yet sure what that business would be.

IF YOU COULD BE ANYTHING IN LIFE WHAT JOB WOULD YOU HAVE? It may not be a "job," but if I could, I would own a bit of acreage and a ridiculous number of animals. I am sure it would start as a couple of cats and dogs, but over time I would probably accumulate a number of additional animals who needed a home. My time would be spent working on projects around the house, gardening, taking care of my pets, and four wheeling of course!
