I have been married to Melissa Gartner since March, 2006. We again were married "legally" in July, 2009. We have been blessed with 2 children. Zachary is 3 yrs. old and Mackenzie is about 10 months old. Our family resides in Des Moines, Iowa. I am a Registered Nurse specializing in cardiac care at Iowa Methodist Medical Center. I also work as an on-call sexual assault nurse examiner for Polk County, Iowa. Melissa is now a stay-at-home mom for our children. We also have 2 crazy cats, Dusty and Lucy.
