I grew up in Pierce, NE and graduated in 2001 from Pierce High School. After high school I played football at Peru State College where I graduated in 2006. My hobbies include being an avid sports fan of the Chicago Bears, Chicago Cubs, Chicago Bulls, and Notre Dame football. I also enjoy running, weight lifting, spending time with my family, and playing games.

Our Family
We married in 2006, a week after graduating from college. We taught 1 year in Morrill, Ne. Then moved to Wilcox, Ne where Ben taught for 2 years while Anna taught at Faith Christian School in Kearney, Ne. In 2009 we moved back to Ben's hometown, where we lived for 4 years before moving to Wood River.
We have 2 boys, Jeremy, 5 years old, and Matthew, 3 years old. Jeremy is in preschool this year here at Wood River Elementary and also participates in the youth wrestling program. Matthew spends his days at daycare, although he'd much rather be at home playing with his daddy and big brother. We also have a dog, a chocolate cocker spaniel named Lovie.
