After graduation I when to Angelo State University for a couple of years and returned to Lubbock completeing a BFA degree in '74. I then moved back to San Angelo and joined by borther's ad agency and married Jana (whom I had met at Texas Tech Art Dept.). I was in the agency for 15 years and then when to work for GTE/Verizon for 19 years in Dallas and New Jersey. I just completed two years in New Jersey(which seemed like 5). After retiring from Verizon in July 08, Jana and I moved back to San Angelo where I play golf. I'm in the process of starting a custom lumber, furniture and tile creation business in Brady, TX. I am doing a little ranching and alot of cactus and mesquite remove.
