I am a 6th  generation Vermonter who grew up in Chittenden County and attended the University of Vermont. I have lived in Vermont all my life and I have been a homeowner in Colchester since 2001.  I spent 40 years hunting, fishing and camping  in all areas of Vermont.  I worked in the restaurant business for 15 years and the last 30+ years in the Aviation industry,  four of those years as the General Manager of an airline at BTV and, since 2014 the Part 139 Operations Foreman at the Leahy BTV Airport
