Bio & Experience

LIVING IN ROCKLIN

My wife and I had our house built in Rocklin back in January of 1989 (something like 28 years).  We have enjoyed living in this community, especially since we both retired a few years ago.  We are both active volunteers in the region.  I am into cycling, target shooting and working with charities that support my values. My wife works as a UCD Placer Master Gardener, Friend of the Rocklin Library and at the Placer SPCA.
