Wisconsin Army National Guard
I moved to a small town just outside of Madison (Lake Mills) when I was 10. Almost immediately fell in love with Madison, the Badgers, and the University of Wisconsin. Through a circuitous route starting college at UW-Whitewater, joining the Wisconsin Army National Guard, and two deployments to Iraq, I finally transferred in and landed at my dream school! Even better: walked on to the football team. Joining the military and graduating from Wisconsin led me to meet my wife, and now a wonderful life here in Madison with our kids. Dream big dreams, Badgers!
