Medtronic Inc. I am pleased to work for a company who dedicates it's resources to making life better for people with incapacitating illnesses. My hobbies include Square Dancing, Square Dance Calling, Silversmithing, Analog Circuit Design and Software Development. My present goals are to be the best husband, father and engineer possible. My future goals for retirement include becoming a Square Dance Caller and selling my handmade silver jewelry on the side. I am a member of CallerLab and the Central Arizona's Callers Association.
Square dancing is a great recreation offering great friends and a good physical workout.
I thank Skip Hughes for his excellent teaching abilities, as an instructor there is none better. I thank Daryl Clendenin , the greatest square dance caller in the world . Daryl is a national caller who lives here in the Valley of the Sun during the winter months and gave me the inspiration to become a caller. Over the past couple of years, Skip and Daryl have worked with me to help me to learn the concepts a caller must know to be a fun action packed caller. Being a caller is by no means a trivial adventure, it is quite involved and requires skills that only comes with practice and experience.
