A brief bit of background about me.  My wife Wendy and I have three children. 
I am from Eastern Ohio (about 40 miles from Pittsburgh).  I received my undergraduate degree from Ohio State.  I worked for Price Waterhouse in Pittsburgh before attending graduate school at UT-Austin (I met Wendy in Austin...during the mid 90s, Austin was a
very cool place to live).  I worked at the University of Houston for four years before coming to Tech.  We’ve been in Lubbock since Fall of 2001.
