Today's Featured Biography

 

 
Lary Achenbach


After high school, I worked summers in highway construction. I graduated from the University of Montana in 1979 with a B.S. in Business and a Communications minor. While in college, I joined Sigma Chi, served as Associated Students Business Manager, and was President of the Interfraternity Council.
After graduation, I traveled around Europe for two months with my brother, Lee, through International Student Exchange. That fall, I married my wife, Catherine Lee, in Billings. We then moved to Portland, Oregon, where I managed restaurants and took programming classes at The Computer Career Institute.
For the next 40 years, I worked as an application programming developer, both as an employee and contractor, in the trucking and power industries. I retired this May from Portland General Electric as a Senior Application Developer, specializing in F5 and Panorama security applications. We moved to Vancouver, Washington, with EDS in 1992.
We have four children, all graduates of Washington universities, and I spent 30 years coaching soccer, from 5-year-olds to Premier level. In retirement, we enjoy taking cruises and traveling. We’re excited to be heading to southern Italy for a month, where my youngest daughter is getting married in Sorrento.
