I retired (sort of) in early 2016 after a 38 year career with one organization. Without sacrificing my new found freedom and flexibility, I started a part-time consulting business and also love spending time volunteering.

My wife, Lauren, and I split our time between West Des Moines (IA) and our rural home in southern Iowa. We have two married children and three grandchildren.

An elderly person with short white hair stands on a wooden boardwalk overlooking a wide river. The person leans on a railing, appearing contemplative. The boardwalk is lined with benches and lush greenery, including banana plants. In the distance, there are rolling hills and a cloudy sky, creating a serene backdrop.
