Geoff grew up in the small town of Fort Scott, KS, home of the country's first National Cemetary and one-time leading exporter of over-alls. He has a B.S. in Psychology that he considers to be just that and an M.A. in Russian & East European Studies that he considers to be worth little more, but his education has only just started. Geoff has nearly 5 years of experience living and working overseas, mainly in Poland, where he volunteered for two years, and Russia, where he performed consular work at Embassy Moscow. He has a wife and two sons.
