Occupation:  Owner of Atkinson Engineers.  I'm a civil engineer and surveyor.

What occupies your days?  Mostly keeping people out of trouble with the city and county and eventually getting their development to the point of completion.  I've been married to my lovely wife Vera for 15 years.  We have three kids; Sarah (14), Alfred (10), and Maggie (8).  I spend most of my time outside work at kids events.  Every once in a while Vera and I will go dancing.  I would normally say that Vera and I also enjoy watching the Aggies win football games, but I don't want to talk about that right now.

Favorite High School Memory:  I really enjoyed being a member of the football team.  I think the difficulties we went through bonded us together.

Favorite motto or saying: I don't really have a favorite motto or saying, but I do try to  “act justly, love mercy, and walk humbly with God”
