Bio | I have been married to Deanna Crandall (VHHS '74) for more than 30 years. We have one biological son, 21, and through AFS we have acquired an Austrian son and Finnish, German and Italian daughters. Over the years, we have had kids from more than 30 countries live with us. On the hobby front, my current toys are a 2000 BMW 740I Sport and a 2002 BMW M3 convertible. Educationally, I graduated from Park University with a B.S.B.A. specializing in Management. I began my career with GM as a Production Manager. After the plant closing, I took the position of Director of Quality Assurance for S&K Industries, a supplier for Remington Arms. In November 2001, I joined Americast Technologies and now I am the VP of Operations for the St. Joe and Primecase, Illinois facilities. I also have enjoyed holding various positions in Quality organizations, including having been Chairman of ASQ. |
