What are you doing now?

I am retired.

How did APS prepare you for this role?

I'm currently busy with projects around the house thanks to excellent wood shop training from Mr. Hardy in 7th grade shop. I enjoyed working with several teachers and spent my first 5 years after the U of Minnesota teaching Mathematics. Then I went into the computer business and worked for Control Data Corporation for 25 years.

What is your advice for current Packers?

Do your HOMEWORK!

Who at APS inspired you?

Mr. Hardy (Wood Shop), Ms Martini (Algebra), Mrs Black (Geometry), Mrs Anderson (English)
