I pledged in the fall of 1988. I was the Eastern Province Councilor in the 1990’s, Kappa Alumni Advisor during the same period and handled the Treasurer job for the Alumni for many years. I am currently the President of the Kappa Alumni Corporation. I have always valued being a member of Sigma Phi Delta and believe that our time as Actives makes us better Men and Engineers. It’s interesting to see all the varied professions that our Brothers have gravitated to and how successful they are. Although I don’t get to talk to or visit many of the Brothers I went to school with, I value their friendship and our time spent in the Fraternity. I own Larry’s Lock & Safe Service, Inc. and Lakeland Electronics in Angola, IN. Many of you will remember Lakeland from Pleasant Street and that it was the supply house for electrical engineers building projects since just before WWII. I purchased it from Don Laird who some of you may remember as he was also an Alumni from Tri-State. Today, Lakeland is an integration company specializing in low voltage applications such as fire, burglary, access control and CCTV which fit nicely into our lock company. I work with my significant other and we have a daughter, Julianna age 14 and a son Michael, age 13. I am also actively involved in the North American Shriners, the Masonic Lodge and the local Chamber of Commerce having served on various boards and as an officer. I’m excited and looking forward to our Fraternities future both Nationally and at Trine University.

As a Freshman, I pledged in the Spring of 2011 and later graduated in the Spring of 2014 with a Bachelor of Science in Computer Engineering, minoring in Robotics and Software Engineering. My first job out of college was as a Consultant at a small company in Goshen, IN called Solution Source. After a year and a half I moved to Michigan and worked for another consulting company called Nexient in Ann Arbor. I am now a Software Engineer at Dominos at their corporate headquarters in Ann Arbor, MI. I am a back-end developer for Next Generation team developing applications for the next iteration of software to be used by the thousands of Franchises across the globe. Recently I married my college sweetheart from Trine University in the Spring of 2017. We have a one year old Pembroke Welsh Tri-Colored Corgi named Theia, and are currently building our first house together. Joining the Sigma Phi Delta fraternity was one of the best things that I have done in my life. Growing up in the small town of Fremont Ohio, I was very used to a small town feel with a small close knit group of friends and that is exactly what I found at Sigma Phi Delta. I am currently the Alumni Advisor for the undergraduate Kappa Chapter, and the Secretary for the Kappa Alumni of Sigma Phi Delta.
