WHO WE ARE : FORWARD JANESVILLE AMBASSADORS

The Forward Janesville Ambassadors

The Forward Janesville Ambassadors, our "Ambassadors of Optimism," definitely see the glass as half full!

The Ambassadors are the friendly folks in the red apparel that you'll see at Forward Janesville ribbon cuttings, grand openings, Business After Fives, and all other special events. Each Forward Janesville member is assigned an Ambassador who keep up-to-date on events and other pertinent information and who visits at least once a year during our annual “Membership Matters” campaign.

I am originally from Woodstock, IL and have lived in Janesville for 10 years now. My wife, Amy, and I have been married for 10 years now, and have three kids – Lila (7), Cavin (5), Tyson (1). We also have 2 border collies, a dachshund and a cat.

I graduated from Winona State University (MN) with a degree in Mass Communications: Broadcasting and a minor in Psychology.

Some of my favorite hobbies are camping, fishing, golfing, volleyball and going to the movies. I love music and enjoy being active and doing anything outside with friends and family. Give me a bonfire and a beer and I’m all set! :)

My wife owns her own health and wellness business, Arbonne. I am active in the business as well as we love to help people live healthier lives.
