I am married, with 2 grown children. My wife is a home hospice nurse. My son lives and works in Hawaii for the Mission Houses Museum. My daughter is trying to become a paramedic.
I got into collecting pinball machines back in 2000. My first machine was a non-working Gottlieb Pro Football, given to me by someone moving cross country. it was all down hill from there.
I started attending Pinball Expo in 2002, and have gone every year since. I started to learn how to repair my own games, and now run a small repair service on the side.
I am a charter member of the Chicago Pinball Collectors Club. I am also currently in my fourth year as a player in the Chicago Pinball League.
