\"\"<\/strong><\/p>\n

Where did you grow up?<\/strong><\/h6>\n

I was born in St. Louis, Missouri. Soon after, I moved to Montreal, Canada, and again to Geneva, Switzerland, where I started elementary school. I moved to the Twin Cities for middle school and have been here ever since!<\/p>\n

Where did you attend college? What is your degree in?<\/strong><\/h6>\n

I attended college at the University of Minnesota, School of Architecture. I have a Bachelor of Architecture.<\/p>\n

How long have you been working at Dunwoody? <\/strong><\/h6>\n

Nine years!<\/p>\n

What do you enjoy most about Dunwoody Architecture? <\/strong><\/h6>\n

I have terrific colleagues and students. Dunwoody gives them what they need to be successful, and I like being a part of that.<\/p>\n

What does it mean to you knowing the first class of Architecture students is about to graduate? <\/strong><\/h6>\n

It tells me that the graduates had faith in us. I\u2019m honored by that.<\/p>\n

What are a few of your hobbies? <\/strong><\/h6>\n

I love old cars. I have a \u201850 Chev, a \u201875 Citroen 2CV Camionette (the kind that looks like it was made in a shop class), a decaying \u201862 Fiat, and a \u201858 Isetta (one door in the front) in pieces in my family room.<\/p>\n

What is your favorite Twin Cities restaurant or coffee shop?<\/strong><\/h6>\n

Midori\u2019s Floating World\u2014I love Japanese food. For 20 years before that though, it was Mr. Q\u2019s in Eden Prairie. Before the owner, Quyet, moved to Florida, he introduced me to Vietnamese food\u2014another one of my favorite cuisines.<\/p>\n

Where is the best place you have ever traveled to? Why? <\/strong><\/h6>\n

Living in Geneva in the \u201950s was a wonderful experience. It was so different than the U.S. or Canada. It broadened my thinking.<\/p>\n

What are you most proud of? <\/strong><\/h6>\n

My wife and I have three children, who are truly fine people and walk the talk of caring for others. They make terrific parents to my three grandchildren.<\/p>\n

Please provide some fun facts about yourself. <\/strong><\/h6>\n

I married an interesting woman, my wife Mary. Through her interest we have a photo darkroom, an art studio, 100+ geraniums, three dogs, a cat, 16 chickens, a blind rooster, a duck that wears a diaper around the house, and a maple syrup boiler in the front yard. Also at last count, something like 15 boats (she fixes old boats). Most are at our lake place in Northern Minnesota. In the summer, I office out of a 1966 Airstream we keep up there. Our main house is in Dahlgren Township west of Carver on 14 acres. I designed the house in 1981 before I had any idea what I was doing.<\/p>\n

Anything else you\u2019d like to share? <\/strong><\/h6>\n

I\u2019m happy to be here.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
