I was an educator who spent most of my career in administration. I’m retired and live outside Nevada City, Ca. an old mining town. I’m originally from Wisconsin and lived in a factory town on the factory workers side of town. My work has been with the lower economic neighborhoods including 10 years in the Projects. These are the people I am most comfortable working for. My father was a Union organizer during the 20s and 30s, probably the reason for my iconoclastic views. I have four grown children and nine grandchildren. I’ve been happily married to the same woman for 63 years and believe the marriage will last. Nevada City, Ca donoc@sbcglobal.net true
