Hello All,
My name is John Conklin and I currently reside in Peoria, Arizona a suburb of Phoenix with my lovely wife Lauren and two dogs, Rocky and Harley. Both Lauren and I work for a major health care company here in the valley, myself in the IT Department as a system support supervisor, and Lauren in the Medical Management department as a project manager.
I am also currently pursuing my PhD in Information Technology through an on-line program with Capella University out of Minnesota. Well into my second year and so far it was been very challenging and rewarding at the same time. I hope to graduate in two years with my doctorate degree in Information Technology.
It has been a couple of years but I also like to play golf when I can. There is just something about chasing that little ball around that I find very relaxing, or maybe its just being outdoors for about 4 hours while I play 18 holes with my friends.
This is my first attempt at an on-line blog so I hope to occasionally update with what’s happening in our lives, and hope you come back soon to read more.

~John
