EDUCATION SUMMARY BS in Business Administration from Oregon State University, 1993. Masters of Organizational Man agement, University of Phoenix, 1999.

CAREER SUMMARY Unlike many people of my generation, I have had only two post-undergraduate jobs.

FEI CHAPTER Portland Chapter, since 2011; serve on the board as secretary and as directory chairman. LEISURE /work hard and play hard; I have an activity almost every weeknight and weekend.

My family and I are very active in competitive dog agility, and we have two Australian shepherds and a sheltie.

When a free weeknight or weekend appears, I relish the downtime.

TIME MANAGEMENT I rely heavily on my Outlook/iCloud calendars. At work I create blocks of distraction-free time where my phone and email are turned off.

STRESS MANAGEMENT Bike riding. In addition to racing, I commute 12 miles daily by bike, and during my rides the stress drips off me like the Oregon rain (which falls literally four months a year). I also like walking meetings instead of the standard conference room variety.
