Hi, my name is Stacy and I am a married father of two. In 2016, we relocated to Indianapolis after previously residing in Boston, MA. I am a veteran of the U.S. Air Force, having served during the Desert Shield/Desert Storm timeframe. My passions include car racing and spending time with my family and our two rescue dogs. I look forward to hosting you and I hope you make lasting memories while enjoying your time at my home away from home.
