About Me
I enjoy Theme Parks greatly for many different reasons. My earliest memories are of The Late Great "Americana" and "Fantasy Farm". I remember attending KI as a small child and riding the Enchanted Voyage in the current BBOBH. We attended KI for Coca-Cola's announcement of "NEW Coke" back in the mid 80's and being there for the presentation with my Mother and Father. My Dad still works for Dayton, O Coca-Cola. I have been a piano player since 1978 at age 4 1/2. My piano teacher Myla, would push, push, and push Classical Training and being myself bull headed and threatening to quit at age 6, she allowed me to pick and choose my music. So, I am trained in Big Band Standards, Boogie Woogie, 50's sockhop bands and Ragtime. Lot's of Scott Joplin. I hate my kids' "screamo music" of today and it has no business in my life. I played in 1992 at Camp Randal Stadium before 40,000 people and A Live PBS Crowd of over 1.5 MIL viewers. I was a horn player then. It was at that time, one of the greatest achievements of my life. I soon met my wife later that year and our 2nd date was at Winterfest, Dec. of 1992. It's last year until 2005. I've been married 17years and with 2 teenage children, we look forward to having our Kings Island Season Passes every year.
I work now as a PI for a private firm and began my career working at KI in 2005. It's also the year I graduated the police academy. Working at KI was the greatest job I had ever held and I hold the staff I worked for in very High Regard. The experience I gained from KI has been my motivation in working in my current career field. I appreciate one Supervisor in perticular, for his wisdom and knowledge to this day.
I love taking photography, riding rollercoaters and watching people. I have not been around as many theme parks as the other guy, but I have been to a few and enjoy every moment of each of them. Universal Studios, FL. Dolly Wood, TN. Hershey Park, PA. Six Flags, NJ. Kings Island, OH.
All I want in life is to make new friends, keep old ones, enjoy life and make a difference somewhere, somehow.
