Ken began, at the age of thirteen, to work in his dad's hardware store. It was then that he first became interested in appliances and how they work. He attended a summer course for refrigeration in the 6th and 7th grades at the local vocational school in Milford, Delaware. During his junior and senior years at Milford High School, he attended classes at the vocational school for refrigeration and air-conditioning.
His father became a distributor of heating oil and propane gas and also sold and serviced major home appliances. Ken worked after school and on weekends with his father and learned all about heating and cooking with gas and oil and installing and servicing appliances.
After graduation, Ken worked with his father until he came to Georgia in 1984. Since that time, he has worked as an appliance technician in the Atlanta Metro area. The last 22 years was spent working for The Appliance Doctor, Inc. in Marietta, one of the most reputable and respected companies in the area.
