| Introduction | I'm a socially awkward, tee-totaling socialist. I was born on the Iron Range, but grew up on a farm in western Wisconsin. Nowadays I hang my hat in the city of Superior, on the shores of beautiful Lake Superior. I work as a janitor at Essentia Health, but am currently on a 3 year leave from that since I was elected Vice President of United Steelworkers Local 9460. |
