David Pulsipher--Balding But Beautiful!

I was somewhat reluctant to post a picture on myself due to my ever-growing forehead, however Kenny's post below has helped to ease much of that apprehension... (just kidding, Kenny).

After high school I spent a quarter at Snow College before embarking on a two-year LDS mission to Puerto Rico. Upon returning from Puerto Rico I attended the University of Utah (no surprise!) where I graduated in May 2003 with a Bachelor Degree in Speech Communication and a minor in Spanish.

It was during this time that I met my beautiful wife Lindsay who, after months of persuasion, finally agreed to go on a date with me. After dating for about a year and a half, we were married in the Salt Lake Temple in July 2002. Upon graduating, I decided to continue going to school and graduated with an MBA from the University of Utah in May 2005. To this day, I still do not know how we survived while we were both in graduate school and working 20 hours/week. Despite the sacrifice, we are very grateful to have devoted that time to lay the foundation for our lives.

Having more free time on our hands after graduating, we had our first and only child, Ryan, in August 2006 (he was a pea pod for Halloween, if you can't tell). Notwithstanding the time consumed in school and work, we have been blessed with several opportunities to travel during our five years of marriage. Our travels include Mexico, Puerto Rico, Thailand, Vietnam, Hawaii, Ohio for the 2006 Ohio State (#1) - Michigan (#2) football game, and, of course, Tempe, Arizona for the 2005 Fiesta Bowl. We look forward to going back to the Carribean in January 2008 for a cruise.

After graduating from college for the last time, we bought a house in South Jordan and I have worked as an auditor for the Utah State Legislature. Lindsay has put her career interests on hold in order to stay at home with Ryan, something for which I am very grateful.
