What people don’t know about me: “I love
board games. And I’m an active member of
the Historical Gaming Miniature Society;
we hold historical battles with figures on
fields about as big as a train set. You play
with little lead figures… it’s kind of the
next couple levels up of playing with little
green army men. You begin by replicating
history, then you’re the general and you figure
out the next moves. We‘ve even
stormed the beaches of Normandy!”
What inspires me: “My family.”
Proudest achievement: “My children and
what we’ve learned together. This year
Kassia and I planted a garden with pineapples
and laid drywall in the living room.”
