I was born 1964 in Gainesville, Florida. I grew up around ham radio as my dad was a ham,\u00a0 K4DTM, licensed since the mid 1950s. (Mom says she\u2019s not sure when as he was licensed when they met in \u201858. ). I always enjoyed watching and listening to sounds in his shack as a kid growing up. Dad went S\/K in 2000.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


I didn\u2019t\u00a0 become interested in ham radio myself until 2023. I got my tech license in March of \u201824 and my general in April of \u201824. I found that my G5RV antenna worked well on 40 meters and I began the world of HF. I ran across some people on a 40meter net and found it quite interesting. They taught me a lot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


Although I\u2019m a new ham, I enjoy helping others as I\u2019m able. I enjoy the WASA net and hope to see it continue to grow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


I currently hold a certified general contractor license in Fl but work in the film industry in the Atlanta area supervising the building of movie sets. When I\u2019m not working I enjoy golf and shooting. ( I have a rifle and pistol range at the QTH.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
