I was born in Idaho. My father was a baker, my mother was a stay-at-home mom. I was the first one in my family to go to college. My parents instilled in me the values of hard work, savings, courage, and faith. These values are what drove me to take the first step and pursue a college degree.

I attended Rick’s College (now BYU-Idaho) in Rexburg, Idaho. Graduated from Brigham Young University in 1986 and then went on to law school. I received my Juris Doctor in 1989 with honors from the McGeorge School of Law at the University of the Pacific.

Since then I have helped grow a successful law firm in my hometown of Idaho Falls. But where I’ve invested my true energy and passion has been with our family. I’ve been married to my wife, Sharon, for more than 35 years and we have five wonderful children together.
