After graduation, I attended the NYS Ranger School for Forestry. After that I entered the Surveying field for a while. In 72, I began working for New York Telephone Co. as a Heating/AC technician. In 86, I left there and worked privately as a heavy equipment operator. In 92, I got my Federal Firearms License and opened up my own Sporting Goods Shop, where I am still working. In 2002, I decided it was time for a change so I got married to my wife Jan.
