I’m still a kid at heart who still loves talking superheroes and a good game of kickball. I have a background in both city and college recreation. I absolutely love my wife and girls, coffee, and everything outdoors!

I’m truly excited to be able to return for my 10th year at Cliff Nelson Recreation Center! Summer camp is where it all started for me. Let’s make this a naturally fun summer together.

This will be my second summer at Dottie Lynn Recreation Center. I love Dr. Pepper and breakfast burritos. In my spare time, I enjoy fishing. I also spend a lot of time watching sports. Go Pack Go!!

This will be my 8th spectacular summer at Dottie Lynn. I love coffee, camping and cinnamon rolls! I spend my spare time hanging out with my family and friends! A fun fact about me: if it was socially acceptable I would always be covered in glitter.
