After serving four years in the Air Force (8th Aerial Port Mobility 1968-1972), I finished my college career at SW Missouri State during which I met my wife, Susan.
Over the next forty-five years (and counting) we raised four kids; Kevin, Laura, Hannah, and Mason. As for grand-kids, we have been blessed with five: Kevin & Becky (Lake St. Louis) have Kylie/2008,Brayden/2011, and Jacob/2015. Laura & Will (Springfield) have Noah/2003 and Ella/2005.
It was during those SMSU days I took a part-time job in the shoe department at Dillard's to help make ends meet which was never envisioned it to be a career choice. Three years later after moving into the buying office in Dallas, one of our vendors showed me the advantage of selling footwear by the case rather than by the pair offered me a rep position and I never looked back.
In 2009 I rang in 35 years in the footwear industry and the opportunity to work for companies such as Nike, Converse, LA Gear, Teva, and UGG beginning as a road rep and culminating as National Sales Director with all five companies. However, after moving nine times(!), with the last being back to Springfield in 1998 from Charlotte NC, we made a solemn vow of no more moves.
This pact led to my forming the Westwind Group, which provides all elements of footwear including sourcing, logistics, marketing, brand management, and sales. This venture however, delayed any thoughts of retirement until who-knows-when, which right now is a good thing!
Currently I am the Vice President of Business Services for the BluCurrent Credit Union which I joined in 2010 and it has been a great 'second career'. It has amazed me the cross-over of the footwear skill sets to the financial industry, but they still don't trust me with money!

"Just discovered your product today while trying to locate classmates ahead of our 50th reunion in 2020. The fact that you did this in a noncommercial manner in a world where everything has a price tag deserves recognition and respect, in my view.
Thank you and good luck in all your endeavors."
