Account Executive
In my early life I was an army brat and moved all over the south and southwest. I spent my high school years in a small town north of Lafayette. After high school I worked as a diesel mechanic to save up money for school. With a year of drowning in oil and diesel under my belt, I couldn't wait to get back into a classroom. I attended Purdue University and, after graduating, relocated with my new wife to Bloomington so she could achieve her Master's Degree. Once there, I started working as an engineering and manufacturing recruiter. I found I had a passion for placing people in roles that helped them with their career and provided value to my clients. I joined Pinnacle Partners and continued to build on my experience in the engineering and manufacturing world. My diverse background has helped me interact with candidates and clients from all levels, from Maintenance Technicians to Directors of Engineering. Pinnacle provides an amazing environment that offers encouragement and support for success. When I'm not in the office I enjoy being with my wife, 2 dogs, and our cat. I spend time hiking, kayaking, bingeing on whatever Netflix is throwing my way, and rooting for the Colts.
I grew up in Olney, Illinois, and attended Murray State University earning a BS degree in Accounting in 1983. Upon graduation, I moved to Indianapolis where I started my career with a regional distribution company. Over the next several years, I performed a variety of accounting and operational roles. However, I decided to leave the accounting profession and accepted a role as a recruiter with a national staffing firm. After several years, I decided to move to a smaller staffing firm where I placed Accounting and Financial professionals focusing on the Central Indiana area. In 1999, after seven successful years, I left this small staffing firm and co-founded Pinnacle Partners. Pinnacle has experienced tremendous growth over the years and I attribute this growth, in part, to the principals I learned early in my career. These principals include building long lasting relationships by providing excellent customer service and superior results. I am very proud of our team of dedicated employees that has facilitated this growth. On a personal note, I am married with three children. When I am not at work, you can usually find me coaching a youth basketball game. I have been fortunate to have had the opportunity to coach for over 24 years. I am a huge Green Bay Packers and St. Louis Cardinals fan and enjoy traveling to watch them play.
IT Recruiter
I was raised in Carmel, Indiana where I attended Carmel High School. I played Varsity hockey all throughout my high school career. I later attended Indiana University where I was involved in many clubs and philanthropies including Faceoff for the Forces and Dropping the Puck on Cancer. After earning my degree in Financial Management from IU, I was seeking a job that would allow me to utilize my social skills along with the skills I acquired in school. I joined the Pinnacle Partners team directly out of college because I felt that it was the perfect fit for me. Since accepting the position I have enjoyed meeting and learning from all the senior level recruiters along with my colleagues. I enjoy helping others achieve their career goals and aspirations. Outside of the office I enjoy hanging out with friends, golfing, basketball, and playing cards. I was originally born in Chicago so my roots are tied to all the sports teams. I follow: The Bears, Cubs, Blackhawks and Bulls. It's rough being a Bears fan, but it will pay off soon I know it.

II am from Clinton, Indiana, but spent most of my adult life in NYC and Connecticut. After attending Cosmetology School, I worked at Pierre Michel Salon, in the heart of NYC, where I had the pleasure of working on celebrities and attending exclusive gatherings. Once I moved to Connecticut, I started working in Property Management and moved my way to being a Senior Community manager for several properties. In 2007, I had my first of three children and stayed at home to raise them. With all the joy that comes with that, I missed having a career. I moved back to Indiana in 2013 after tremendously missing family and friends and got back to work. Having experience in sales and a passion for people, I started at Pinnacle Partners as an Account Manager. With my love of working with people and helping them when in need, Pinnacle Partners is the perfect fit for me. Their dedication to the service they provide, the principles and ethics with the business and their understanding of family, is beyond anything I'd ever imagined. I've never worked for such an amazing company in my life! When I'm not at work, you can find me either swimming or doing something outdoors with my 3 children, ages 7, 8 and 10. I enjoy all sports, playing and watching, vacationing, water skiing, laughing with my children and watching them grow into caring, loving people.

After opening an office for that firm in Boca Raton, FL., I then moved to Chicago to start my staffing boutique. What I enjoy most about our industry is engaging with companies, learning what it is that they do best and then, helping them to do that better. We never stop learning and that's what makes this career very exciting. I now live in Hamilton County with my wife, son, and the best black Labrador Retriever in the world. Outside of work we are all always on-the-go with sports, traveling and adventure.

I grew up as a part of a large family in Franklin, Indiana and attended Manchester College, graduating with a Bachelor of Science degree in accounting. Following college, I spent the initial five years of my career working in the accounting field within the manufacturing industry, mainly focusing on cost accounting. In 2000, I had the opportunity to join Pinnacle Partners and develop the Temporary Accounting Staffing Division. The opportunity to join a management team of former co-workers was exciting, and it made for an easy transition into a company with very strong ethical and business leadership. Since joining Pinnacle, my responsibilities have grown along with the company. I currently manage all aspects of the Accounting, Administrative, and Manufacturing/Engineering divisions. I am proud of the growth that we have experienced at Pinnacle. My time at Pinnacle has allowed me to have a very rewarding career while never losing sight of my other priorities in life. My wife, Sara, and I have three boys who are very active in sports; they definitely keep us on the go.

Although this opportunity was exciting and challenging, I had a strong desire to move my career in a different direction. In 1990, I accepted a role as an IT Recruiter for a national staffing firm. In 1993, my wife and I moved to Indianapolis where I joined a small staffing firm and continued in the role of IT staffing.

Senior IT Recruiter
I was born and raised in Robinson, IL and attended nearby Indiana State University in Terre Haute, IN. Immediately upon graduating, with much thought and careful consideration, I made the move to Indianapolis to begin my career. My career started at John Hancock as a Financial Advisor. I immediately passed the Series 6 & 63 allowing me the ability to provide financial stewardship and guidance to my clients' investments and insurance needs. From there my journey took me to Alabama to run my family's new car dealerships for several years allowing me the opportunity to run a large successful business. Eventually we sold the business and I was happy to move back to Indianapolis where I spent the next five years as a Senior Product Advisor within the Healthcare Insurance industry. I joined Pinnacle Partners in early 2011 and was promoted to Senior IT Recruiter in 2012. I regularly attend networking events including IndyJUG which is sponsored by Pinnacle Partners. I enjoy engaging in the technologies that are relevant to candidates that I represent. Each year I attend as many sporting events as possible. You can find me at all the Colts home games as well as many Pacers games. I also make the trip over to Cincinnati to cheer on the Reds. Other hobbies include listening to music and staying up to date on technologies.
I was raised in Merrillville, Indiana, and attended Indiana University where I earned a Bachelor of Science degree in accounting. I started my career in Chicago with a small public accounting firm. Although this was great experience, I was soon married and found myself relocating to Indianapolis with my husband. I spent the next several years as an Accounting Manager for a larger telecommunications manufacturer. Along the way, I developed a passion for travel which led me to working in the travel industry in my spare time. However, we found ourselves relocating to Michigan so I took this opportunity to work full time in the travel industry. In 2000, we returned back to Indianapolis where I joined Pinnacle Partners in a part time capacity. Part time evolved into full time as my children grew. I have held many positions at Pinnacle Partners, and I am now the Corporate Controller. I have witnessed Pinnacle's growth first-hand, and I have been given the opportunity to work with an excellent group of employees and clients. I enjoy coming to work and am honored to work for a company that has allowed me to have a successful career while balancing my family. In my free time, I continue to work with travel planning, and I also enjoy scrapbooking, travel, spending time with family and my dog Lucky.
II grew up in Frankfort, IN and attended a small high school where I graduated with a class of under 70 students. I then decided to continue my studies with Ball State University. While attending BSU, I was involved in organizations such as Pi Beta Phi Fraternity for Women, SHRM, and Women's Club Volleyball. Upon receiving my Bachelor's Degree in Human Resource Management and Organizational Communication, I began searching for a career that would utilize the skills I had gained throughout my education. I decided to start my professional career with Pinnacle Partners as an Administrative Recruiter. I am grateful to work alongside such knowledgeable and professional individuals every day. Assisting qualified candidates to find careers they enjoy, and building relationships along the way has truly been a rewarding experience. The company culture Pinnacle provides is one that any employee would be happy to be a part of. Outside the office, I enjoy spending time with my family, friends, and 2 cats. Due to being born in near Boston, I am a Red Sox fan by default, but don't worry – I would never root for the Patriots.
Growing up in Iowa, I learned the value of a strong work ethic at an early age. Losing my mother at the age of eight, I helped raise my younger brother and sister as my father worked two jobs to support four children. I began working at the age of 12, went on to work full and part-time jobs at CPA firms during my college years, and paid for my entire college education. That work ethic has carried me through my successful 30 year career in the CPA profession, including the last 25 years in business and industry. After working in public accounting for five years with two Big Six firms, Deloitte & Touche and KPMG Peat Marwick, I decided to branch out into the world of executive recruiting for Accounting, Finance and Information Technology. Pinnacle Partners was cofounded in Indiana in September 1999 to assist Accounting, Finance and Information Technology professionals in locating career opportunities. Pinnacle Partners has helped hundreds of candidates each year develop their career strategies. Pinnacle Partner's unique approach to understanding an individual's career/personal wish list has made Pinnacle Partner's one of the leaders in professional staffing.
Engineering/Manufacturing Account Manager
Raised on the southside of Indianapolis I have always been an avid sports enthusiast that played football, basketball, baseball and golf. After high school I attended Ball State University where I graduated with a degree in Management of Information Systems. After graduation I accepted a sales management role that allowed me to move to sunny south Florida. This was a great experience that allowed me to spend the next 4 years traveling all over the United States. During that time I was lucky enough to visit 42 states. When it was time to settle down and plant my roots I returned to central Indiana to be near family and friends. When Pinnacle Partners decided to grow their Engineering & Manufacturing Recruiting division they reached out to me and I was so impressed with their culture and the success they have had in the Finance, Accounting and IT business units that I was thrilled to join their team. Pinnacle has a strong focus on customer service and always doing what is in the best interest of both clients and candidates. Since joining Pinnacle the support from all levels has been phenomenal. Definitely looking forward to tremendous growth and success in the future. While I thoroughly enjoy the recruiting lifestyle when I am away from the office you will find me spending time with family, friends and most certainly my dog, Reggie.

Finance & Accounting Recruiter
I grew up close to Indianapolis and, for the most part, have stayed close to home. I went to school at Taylor University (Go Trojans!) where I had the opportunity to play four years of college football and graduated with a degree in Accounting. I went to work for a national CPA firm in South Bend in their audit group and after a couple of years, transitioned out into corporate accounting. After meeting my wife, we moved to San Francisco for her job and spent a few years in the Bay Area, where I worked as an outsourced Controller for a portfolio of tech start-ups. We eventually moved back to be closer to family and I came into Pinnacle as a candidate, looking for a position in the local market. I was instantly impressed with the relational, deliberate approach to the placement process. I wasn't just another resume needed to make a transaction. I ended up joining Pinnacle as a recruiter in the spring of 2013 and have loved it ever since. With my background in accounting, I'm able to leverage that knowledge to better understand the technical nuances of the needs of my clients, as well as the backgrounds of the candidates I work with. I partner with public and privately-held companies all over Central Indiana to help them identify and hire the best accounting and finance talent the market has to offer, with positions ranging from Staff Accountant, up through CFO. When I'm not in the office, you can find me watching sports (Cubs, Colts, Pacers, Boilers) or the latest superhero movie, or hauling my daughter around to whatever sport/activity she's involved in that season.

Open Thread: Talk About Sex & Love — No Conversation Is or Ever Will Be Off Limits Here
Here's your place to come talk about sex and love whenever you feel like it.
For a long time, eyebrow-arching and pearl-clutching over "hookup culture" has focused on young women: they will feel used by young men and come to believe they can only derive value in themselves from their sexuality. Such concerns have been roundly and fairly criticizing as portraying young women as victims lacking in agency, or worse, in need of a paternalistic watchful eye.
There has been less of a focus on how hookup culture affects young men. According to a piece by the usually-spot-on journalist Abigail Pesta, writing for NBCnews.com, there is "an increasing confusion among boys about how to behave" and experts say "boys who engage in this kind of sexualized behavior say they have no intention to be hostile or demeaning — precisely the opposite. While they admit they are pushing limits, they also think they are simply courting."
Oh dear.
Psychologist Catherine Steiner-Adair interviewed 1,000 students for her new book, The Big Disconnect: Protecting Childhood and Family Relationships in the Digital Age. She noted that courtship — that quaint phrase! — is now predominantly done by email, text, Facebook and other technological routes. Instead of passing notes in class or calling your crush on the phone, you know Facebook-stalk them.
But this NBC News article specifically zeroed in on the young men who take a turn for the crass and then say that they don't know any better. One example is a boy who messaged a girl he liked: "I want my dick in your mouth … will you at least be my girlfriend?" Another boy sent his girlfriend an unsolicited naked photo: "I was so mad about that," the girlfriend said. The boyfriend seemed surprised by her reaction. (I mean, who wouldn't want to see him naked?!) According to Steiner-Adair, these boys think they are just "goofing around, flirting" when they engage in this behavior.
Teenagers as a group are known to be immature and impulsive. Technology has changed dating. Sex and dating is awkward for everybody. But I call bullshit here: the larger rape culture is giving teenage boys a pass to say that they "have no intention to be hostile or demeaning" when they are being just that, as if they just behave boorishly by accident. Boys will be boys, am I right? I refuse to believe that society has decayed so drastically that youngsters don't get that aggressive sexual overtures make other people uncomfortable. Instead, I think people who behave this way are doing so by choice and feigning confusion.
My own anecdotal experiences with online dating have proven there are a worrying number of adult men who believe sexual joking right off the bat or sending unsolicited dick pics is OK. But certainly not all men are so boorish; in fact, many men understand that sending unsolicited X-rated photos without a woman's consent or making aggressive sexual demands is unwanted, even predatory behavior. Even if traditional courtship has changed, more than a few guys still have enough of a clue to realize this kind of aggression, even in jest, is creepy and off-putting to a lot of women. Men who respect women do not behave that way while flirting and I suspect the same is true of teen boys as well.
Boys who behave boorishly aren't just victims of "hookup culture," but rather canaries in the coal mine of how deeply ingrained disrespecting women can be in our culture. If anyone is being victimized, it's the girls — by these boys' behavior. The girlfriend in the story above was "mad" about getting a naked pic, but I suspect she means "uncomfortable" or "upset." Another girl described getting "disgusting" text messages from a guy who later told her he had a crush on her; she cried while telling Steiner-Adair this story. As important as it is for young men to learn about consent and for adult heterosexual men to model proper appropriate courtship behavior, it's also important for young women to be taught they have the right to establish boundaries. They can tell guys that behave like this to get lost. (And they should!)
I'm not convinced boys are the one being hurt here, but we should probably listen to Steiner-Adair's warning that teen boys are engaging in this behavior. They are still young. We still have time to teach them better.

Zoo Trail
We feel that when you visit the most important purpose is to walk around and enjoy exploring the zoo! Exmoor zoo in the late Spring and summer has a lovely "tropical exploration" feel to the park. A zoo trail is set out just so everybody does not miss any of the exhibits. The paths wind and places are hidden from each other and vegetation like the bamboo and gunnera give a very "jungle" like atmosphere.
Keep a look out for all our native animals, birds and insects as you walk around as we do our best to encourage these. Orchids grow in some of the marsh paddocks, scabious offers food for our marsh fritillaries (butterflies) and the budlea magnificent in bloom in August can bring in hundreds of nectar feeding butterflies. What ever month you visit something native will be happening - charms of goldfinch on seeding thistle in winter, bulfinches in the cold months of January and February raiding the budlea seed heads, cheeky sparrows stealing feathers from our exotic birds in March and April to line their nests.
We have provided a few images of the trail to give you a feel for the zoo - but beware, we do have some animals and birds that live free within the confines of the zoo!
New for 2014
Nature trail extension
This winter the zoo has finished creating a natural trail through the abandoned wildlife area below the cheetah enclosure. Most of the bramble, gorse and willow has been cut back and a path that enables our more able bodied visitors (it is very steep and steps have had to be incorporated) to walk along the stream at the bottom of the valley is now complete. It is our intention to allow a small flock of Soay sheep to roam free within the area to encourage the grass meadow to rejuvenate. Below are some current images! Chiffchaff, siskins, spotted flycatchers, black caps and little owls are just some of the birds that regularly use this area!

FEMA Flood Plain Information
Many townships within Cheboygan County are receiving new FEMA Flood Plain Maps (FIRMs) and the new maps were official on August 16, 2012. These can now be viewed on the County's Mapping website. Even if your property is within a Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA) your building or new project may not be. If your construction project is not within an SFHA even if your property is in the SFHA you may not be subject to the additional Flood Plain requirements. Please contact the Cheboygan County Building Official, Matt Cronk, 231-627-8488, for more details.
Certain areas within Cheboygan County near the inland lakes and rivers and tributaries as well as some low-lying areas have been identified by FEMA as Special Flood Hazard Areas (SFHA). A special flood hazard area is that portion of land subject to inundation by a flood and/or flood-related erosion hazards.
A building permit is required BEFORE beginning any construction. Some types of construction activities may be restricted if they are located within a Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA). Other activities such as grading or filling may also need permits in SFHA's even if they don't normally need a permit if they were NOT in an SFHA.
Please feel free to use the following information to gain information about what the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) means to you. We recommend starting with the following material and read them in order.

Moonlight (DXL 1166)
We are delighted to announce the release of the much anticipated Volume 6 'Moonlight' from Martin Roscoe's complete Beethoven Sonata series. Composed by a young Beethoven at the age of twelve, these early piano masterpieces perfectly illustrate the daringness and originality of the young composer. Piano Sonata in C sharp minor, 'Moonlight' is the most famous work of Beethoven's piano works. Martin Roscoe notes how ground-breaking it is with the composer's choice of key - C sharp minor was hardly ever used by composers, and secondly the opening with an Adagio slow triplet movement to produce a hypnotic calm while the funereal dotted rhythm of the main theme evokes the feeling of tragedy. Producer Mike George adds that the F minor sonata is probably the most interesting and forward-thinking of Beethoven's early sonatas. "Listeners whose internal Beethoven sonata barometers read 'intimate' rather than 'cosmic' will respond to the stature and high standards of Roscoe's artistry."
