Activities

Besides work there are a lot of things I do for the community, church, and in the little spare time I have.

Work

I enjoy Java development, specifically eCommerce and Web Application development. The Resume page outlines my work history and technologies I work with. I also have a website called SellersToolbox where I create tools to help marketplace sellers on the Amazon.com platform. It is a simple web application that utilizes a number of web services Amazon offers.

Volunteering

CHURCH: I am the financial and membership clerk for my church presently. Before this I was in charge of Sunday School. Always something new to try volunteering in my church. It’s great to be able to serve others and know you are making a difference.

SCHOOL: I created and run the Lakota East Bands website which during marching season can be a ton of work. Right now is Jazz and Concert season. These kids are great and we have some of the best kids playing in the state. A number have made the District 13 Honor Band this year. Check out the site enjoy all the music and pictures available.

Woodworking

I love to work with wood when I get a chance. I have been scrolling nativity scenes lately based on a design made for a free nativity display my church puts on each year. I have my woodworking stuff on the Wood page. I also am making some scrolled ornaments, kids puzzles, and other small crafts. Pictures are on the Wood page as well.

Travel

I love to travel with the family and couple learning with some fun on our trips. We recently went to Boston, MA and NYC, NY where my brother-in-law Gerald lives. He gave us a tour of downtown and it was an amazing trip. 95 degrees the whole time, but great nonetheless. I had never been to NYC so it was amazing to be around all those buildings.
