Hello

My name is Jay J Bowman, (the middle name is only an initial, I’m convinced my parents could not agree on their children's names and just gave them initials). I was born in Michigan and grew up in Utah. I remember the winters, the vast forest of green surrounding the lake of our small town in Michigan. My parents moved to Salt Lake City when I was 8 years old. Utah was a wonderful place to grow up, I enjoyed hunting, fishing, skiing and love the mountains and deserts of the state. Our father worked 3 jobs when we first moved there to try and make ends meet. He spent long hours working to support his family, While Mom stayed at home to take care of me and my 4 younger siblings. . Eventually my father started his own small business, which no doubt inspired my own entrepreneurial spirit. After my parents divorced, my mother went back to school at the University of Utah and graduated with her degree.  We even attended some of the same university classes together! My mother never stopped learning after she graduated and went on to expand her educational horizons, traveling the world on archeological digs. My father ran his successful small business until his early death of cancer. I left  the university of Utah to start my own business at the age of 23, and love being a small business owner. In the early 90's I moved to Kentucky for a business opportunity, Kentucky has been a great place to work and raise my family.

I was lucky to be born in this great nation!
