Born in a suburb of Boston called Lynn (once famous for shoe factories). When my father joined the airforce, we moved to Marysville, Ca. and I ended up growing up in the small towns of Live Oak and nearby, Yuba City.
 
Left as soon as I could. Moved to Santa Rosa (beautuful place even today) and spent some quality time in the San Francisco area. Joined the Navy, saw the world (mainly the middle east) and moved to san Diego. Was part of a wonderful missionary fellowship (where I learned to play the guitar and lead worship) which, it's name implies, was full of missionaries and died after a few years when everyone moved away (missionaries, who knew?).
 
When I got out, it was back to Yuba City to help a small church there grow. They were a obstinate bunch (except the pastor and a few faithful servants) and the church was eventually sold to it's own daughter church (a very nice bunch).
 
Moved to Texas (after taking music as Yuba College), to attend Bible School (where else but Texas). Took a year of that and another year and a half of Computer Science. During that time I helped plant a church with Swedish pastor Rune Brannstrom. Actually I was the worship leader and did some childrens' ministry as well (although I'm not very good at either ... save that I made a good puppeteer on Sunday mornings).
 
Moved back to Yuba City, did another semester at Yuba College and am now working at and attending CSU, Chico. I recently moved here from Yuba City (about 45 minutes but the gas was killing me). I currently attend Calvary Chapel, Chico.
 
That's all about me and where I'm coming from,
