I was born and raised in Kenosha, Wisconsin. Bowling has always been a huge piece to my family puzzle. At the age of ten years old, my parents partnered and purchased a local bowling center where I spent hours working towards my dream of becoming a professional bowler. I have lived that dream out since the age of 19 when I tried out for the 1982-1983 tour. My PBA time did not end there. Over the years I’ve experienced success in the Midwest region and as a part-time player on the national tour. Making my first PBA telecast in 2010 at the age of 48 was a dream come true. In addition to my career on the lanes, I have owned and operated Bowler’s Choice Pro shop in Racine, Wisconsin since 1983. I have been married to my wife, Jackie, for 30 years. We have two wonderful children, Jacob and Lauren. In my free time I enjoy traveling up north to fish, golfing, and traveling with my family. I am a huge Chicago Cubs and Green Bay Packer fan.
