Graduated from Bolivar, MO back in 88’ went in army, got out in 92’, thought I could do any physical labor, and so, in MO, I did all sorts of life threatening labor for $7 / hr.  So went to school with G.I. bill..... why?.... I still have over 20,000 in school loans..... so I don’t know why. 
found my forte in drafting, and have learned extensively in the area of tooling steel, carbides, and a lot of metallurgy dealing with compact tooling.
grew up in Houston, MO until the age of 11, which I then moved to Bolivar, MO (the folks came with).  I love the designing fields envolving steel and basically tools, crosswords, my bloodhound and weim. 
Im currently unemployed as I was layed off of my last job at Eaglepicher, but have attained a letter of recommendation from a swedish physicist, so hopefully will find something more than the “taco hut” job I’ve sorrowfully been finding myself thinking about.
