Who are you?
I am a husband, a father, a software engineer, a mechanic, a geek,
an odd-ball, full of giggles and often misunderstood. On a continual journey to grow up, I have always made sure to stop and play in the flowers.
What do you do?
By day I'm a Business Intelligence Lead Software Engineer.
In the evenings I enjoy time with my wife Michelle and my daughter Megan. Once they all go to sleep, I spend the rest of my evening out in the garage building motorcycles, cars, side projects, welding, cutting, fabricating, etc...
I also maintain the TWF web site where I am steadily learning more and more. One day I may want to make the switch to web site design and development, but I have a TON to learn before I could make that switch
Where do you do it?
I work for Intuit (Turbo Tax, Quicken, QuickBooks, etc..) and have been doing Business Intelligence since 1998 (Back when it was simply called Data Warehousing)

Why do you race?
I race to keep my sanity, feel relaxed and avoid the lawyer fees I would encure if I didn't have this outlet. After a weekend on track, I am as relaxed as I'll ever get. If I have to go more than 4-5 days without at least riding to work... I get anxious. After a month of not being on track I get obnoxious.
I am very lucky to have a wife and daughter who understand my need for this consuming sport and accompany me to just about every event. Meesh suppots me through out the day and my daughter Megan screams loud enough for me to almost hear her as I pass down the front straight. I would be hard pressed to do as well as I do without their support. (Having a successful career is helpful too when the bills come in :D )
What's next?
I don't know. I want to build more project bikes.... but for racing, I think my focus is going to move to making myself a better rider. I can ride fast and do it with reletive safety, but I would like to disect the techniques further and really tune in to what makes certian riders truly fast.
