History in Northwest Wisconsin: We
bought our first cabin on Crooked Lake in Siren back in 2003. At the
time our son was two years old and our daughter was two months
old. As the kids grew older, we realized our family time at the
cabin would be limited with all of their school activities back in the
cities. We made the decision in 2006 to sell our home in Plymouth
and built a home just outside of Grantsburg so that we could be closer to the
lake place. After a couple of cabin upgrades in 2009 and 2016 we
sold our home in Grantsburg in 2018 and moved to Crooked Lake full time.
Career Background: I recently wrapped up a
27-year career with a Fortune 500 company. I held a number of different
roles over the years but the majority of my time was spent in Sales and Account
Management. I am passionate about helping people find the perfect property and
feel my personal NW Wisconsin story and background in Sales are a perfect match
to make that happen.
Favorite Sport: My favorite sport is
hockey. I played as a kid growing up and both of my kids have played
since they were little. Some of my favorite hockey memories are coming to
the cabin in the winter so my kids could skate on the rink we shoveled on the
lake and watching Gopher hockey games with the family.
Happy Place: I would say in the summer it’s on
the pontoon with family and friends and in the winter it’s at the ice arena
watching hockey. We take a lap or two around the lake on the pontoon most
nights we are home. And in the winter weekends have been spent at the rink
watching the kids play hockey. I don’t think there is a rink in Western
Wisconsin I’ve yet to visit.
Little Known Fact: I am a Jeep Wrangler
enthusiast. I have owned 7 Wranglers to date….and hopefully more to come in my
future.
One Thing I Don’t Miss: Traffic driving to
and from the cabin every weekend!
