Theodore Ingalls, Jr

After graduation from Stow High School, I attended Ohio State University in Columbus, where I studied pre-veterinary medicine. While at OSU, I played lacrosse and hockey for the Buckeyes, and captained the OSU hockey team in my senior year.

After completing my athletic eligibility, I transferred to Colorado State University in Ft. Collins, CO. to continue pursuing veterinary medicine.
Following graduation from CSU, I attended the U.S. Navy's Officer Candidate School in Newport, RI, and was commissioned as an officer in February 1968. I served as Damage Control Officer aboard fleet destroyers during the Vietnam War, and after rotating to shore duty, negotiated defense contracts for the Department of Defense.

After resigning from the Navy is 1972, I worked as a risk manager for four corporations: The Denver Brick & Pipe Company (heavy manufacturing,) The Adolph Coors Company (food and beverage,) Cobe Laboratories (medical appliances) and Battelle Memorial Institute (research and development.)

I then joined the Ohio Bureau of Workers Compensation as Assistant Superintendent for the Division of Safety & Hygiene in Columbus, Ohio. While in this position, I developed the bureau's highly successful Risk Management and Business Consulting process for businesses throughout Ohio.

In 1998, I started Performance Management Consultants, a risk-management and business-consulting firm. The company provides consulting services in risk management, leadership development and executive coaching. I continued as president; however, my base of operations has moved from Columbus to Goodyear, Arizona. I retired as an active business consultant in 2010.

I married my wife Pat, a native of Cuyahoga Falls. We have two children: Stephanie, a chemical engineer, who is now the mother of two and lives south of St. Paul, MN. Ted III is a civil engineer working for an engineering consulting firm in Kansas City. He and his wife live on a small farm south of the city and have two young children.

Pat and I now reside in Goodyear, AZ, a city 20 miles west of Phoenix. We are involved in a variety of activities in the desert southwest,as we live in a gated active-lifestyle resort community. Pat earned a bachelor's degree from Metropolitan State University in Denver in journalism and had a 30-year career in public relations.

She is a former professional singer and continues to perform in a choral groups and theatrical productions. She also plays on several competitive tennis teams. I also play tennis and is an avid road biker. I bike more than 3,000 miles each year. We both love to hike in the nearby mountains, as well as camping and fishing in northern Arizona. Our passion for sports keeps us busy, as we attend many local professional and college football, baseball and hockey games. We also usher for the Oakland A's during the team's spring-training games each March...and love to attend the Indians and Reds spring-training games in Goodyear. Pat annually sings the National Anthem at Baseball games and community celebrations.
