I grew up in southern Idaho, but I've lived in every part of the Gem State. Born in Twin Falls, I graduated from Jerome High School before moving to Moscow to study civil engineering at the University of Idaho. After graduation, I took a job in Boise as Governor Dirk Kempthorne's Special Assistant and Speechwriter. After Law School and a few years at a big law firm in Dallas, TX, I moved to Pocatello while clerking for Judge N. Randy Smith on the 9th Circuit. I've now made my home in Idaho Falls for the past 15 years.
