Introduction	I am the editor of the Kuna Melba News, which my wife, Nicola, and I purchased in September 2006. I went to Syracuse University, receiving degrees in newspaper journalism and English textual studies. My first day as a professional journalist was on June 24, 1994, at the Current-Argus in Carlsbad, N.M., where I met Nicola. From 1995 to 1998, I was at the News-Herald in Mentor, Ohio, just outside Cleveland. Nicola and I moved to San Francisco in 1998, where I went to work for the San Mateo County Times, eventually becoming managing editor. In 2001, we moved to Rochester, N.Y., where I was an assistant metro editor at the Democrat and Chronicle for five years. Nicola and I bought our first house and started our family, with our two sons, Luke and Robert. Nicola and I also started to seriously consider purchasing our own newspaper. We found the Kuna Melba News on a businesses for sale web site and purchased it in September 2006.
