I am the owner of The Backyard BBQ Grill Company, which I started in 2009.  The company provides on-site grill cleaning and service to homeowners throughout the St. Louis metro area.   We use a unique steam bath and "green" cleaning procedure to restore our clients' grills and outdoor kitchens to the best condition possible.  In addition, we provide custom made outdoor grill island and patio furniture covers to protect your investment.   Our website is www.bbqgrillco.com

Prior to starting the company, I spent my corporate career in the printing industry, working as an operational executive and consultant for both national and regional printing companies.  

My interest in grilling and barbecue started early in life, and I'm blessed to be able to turn one of my passions into a working company.  Few things give me more joy than spending an afternoon on the patio with family and friends, grilling and visiting.  My brother and I, together with two other friends, also have a competition bbq team that competes around the region since 2004.  We are members of the St Louis BBQ Society.  We are certified barbecue competition judges, as well.

I have four daughters and a son, and reside with my wife Kelley in St Charles County.
