Hi, I'm Chad. I like to consider myself a "glass is half full" kind of guy. Especially if that glass contains any form of soda pop -- one of my favorite things in life. I also enjoy trying to have broad likes an interestes -- everything from sports to theatre. Anyone that knows me knows that I live and die with the Oregon Ducks. Growing up in Eugene, OR, just a few miles from the University of Oregon campus, it became one of our favorite family outings to attend Oregon football and basketball games. Now, however, my brother has committed to play football for Oregon STATE University, and I can no longer have a deep loathing for the orange and black of the beavers. I'm still working on that.I love my family. My mom, Trish, my dad, Chuck, and my brother, Matt. They live in Eugene. My dad is a real estate appraiser, and my mom is an administrative assistant for an orthopedic clinic, a great cook, and one of the kindest, most caring, women you will ever meet. My brother recently graduated from Marist High School. He led his football team to the state championship this year (100+ receiving yards and a td in the championship) and is now attending OSU.Just recently I made the transition to graduate school at Purdue University. I am pursuing a masters degree in organizational leadership. After that I would like to pursue a career in the athletic field. Ideally I would like to work in the front office of a major league baseball franchise.For fun I like to throw the frisbee, play catch (baseball, football or frisbee), attend sporting events and concerts, and I used to love to cruise around the NNU campus in the admissions' golf cart.
