Gerad grew up in Richardson and he and his wife, Heather, along with Zoey, a "chiweenie" Dachshund/Chihuahua; Bob, a cockatiel, Dude and Dudette, both bearded dragons and 2 aquariums of fish, now live in Allen.  Gerad graduated from Berkner High School in Richardson and attended Abilene Christian University.

Gerad has been with East Lake since 2003 as our communications specialist. Gerad's hobbies include anything to do with computers.

(we fondly refer to him as "Bill Gates" or "The Wizard"), watching the Cowboys and Rangers, Sudoku puzzles, and collecting Pez dispensers.

Gerad and Heather spent their honeymoon at a Pez collector convention in Minneapolis!  How romantic can you get, Wizard?
They have attended several other Pez conventions  and spend more money on the old plastic toys than he would like to admit.  He currently has over 1,000 Pez dispensers!
