Erin was born and reared in Fairbanks, Alaska and Alan was born in Utah and reared in Sacramento. California. Alan is the oldest of five boys and a little girl and Erin is the fourth of six kids. We are both in our second marriages and we have four children altogether and one adorable grandson.
Alan has worked with teenagers his entire adult life by teaching junior high and high school and has worked full-time at Stillwater as a support staff and case manager. Erin is getting her degree in family and marriage studies and loves teens as much as Alan. A wise man once said, “There is only one problem with teenagers in this world and it’s that there’s not enough of them!” We have worked for Stillwater since January 2017.
In our spare time, we love to ride bikes and watch movies. We just bought a motorhome and plan on seeing everything in the western states in it. We just enjoy being together as a family. We love having these Stillwater kids in our home. They have added so much to our family and taught us a lot about themselves. And they have learned a lot about how we function as a family and our dynamics. We have kept in touch with many of them after they leave the program and it’s fun to have these friends from all over the nation and world.
