Bio Sketch

Am married and have two daughters. My wife is a “retired” lawyer. My oldest daughter is married, teaches first grade, and is expecting her first child in July 2008. My youngest daughter is graduating high school in May 2008 and will be attending Vanderbilt University. In my spare time I enjoy music and fine food and wine along with good company. I like to travel, but welcome time spent at home. I try to stay fit in order to better engage my passion of skiing.
