What do you do when an institution has made a significant impact on your life? You give back! That is why I’m proud to be a member of the Beloit Alumni Board. My associations at Beloit connected me to my wife and my career. The critical thinking that I learned at Beloit shaped my life and gave me the tools I needed to be successful. Beloit also helped me hone my personal skills. As a result, I have built a network of lifelong friendships both in and out of my Beloit circle. These relationships impact me in immeasurable ways. For example, I recently made great strides in my battle with my esophageal cancer. It’s these relationships that helped me find the best treatments and surgeons. Now I can continue to focus on giving back.
