Length of time you have lived in Perry:
I purchased my home in Perry in 1984. Since that time I have purchased, renovated, and sold three other houses. I have also purchased and upgraded several other houses for rentals which currently actively manage.

In addition to managing my rental properties, I work full time+ as the Senior Agronomist/Production Supervisor raising soybean seed for Syngenta Seeds Inc. in Jefferson, Ia. In this capacity I work closely with approximately 130 farmers in western Iowa, northwestern MIssouri, eastern Nebraska, and North Central Kansas.

Happily unmarried, though I have been in a committed relationship for over 12 years. I have very active 88 year old parents in St. Louis, MO, and a sister in Eugene, OR and three pampered cats.

I enjoy the challenges of repairing, renovating, and remodeling houses, as well as gardening, walking bicycling, kayaking, and canoeing when time allows.
