I retired in 2006 after a 30 year career with UPS. I’ve spent my entire life in upstate New York where I currently reside with my wife Maria. Stamp/Duck Stamp Collecting Background: I’m the NDSCS Immediate Past President. I began collecting stamps at age 11 & I became fascinated with duck stamps soon after. I collect all things duck stamp related specializing in junior ducks, artist signed stamps, and remarques. I’ve held the positions of NDSCS President, Vice President, and “Duck Tracks” Advertising Manager. I’m currently the Society Stamp Sales Manager and the coordinator of our annual Sid Crawford Waterfowl Conservation Award. I enjoy attending the Federal duck stamp art contest each September. I’ve enjoyed meeting and becoming good friends with the artists and fellow duck stamp collectors over the years.
