Campaign_Phone 419-574-3464
Over the last nine years, I’ve served as the troop leader for my daughter’s Girl Scout troop, where I’ve been responsible for organizing and managing both the fall product and cookie sales. This included overseeing all financial aspects of these campaigns, ensuring transparency and accountability.

In addition, I served as the President of the Anthony Wayne Parent Teacher Association for four years, and one year as Vice President. In these roles, I collaborated with school leadership, coordinated events and advocated for students and families—experiences that required strong organizational and communication skills.

Prior to that, I served in the U.S. Air Force for nine years as a Civil Engineer in a RED HORSE unit, where I gained extensive experience in leadership, logistics, and team coordination under high-pressure conditions.

These combined experiences have prepared me to fulfill the responsibilities of this office with integrity, efficiency, and a strong commitment to service.
I’ll bring transparency where it’s been lacking, and fairness where favoritism has taken root. That means clear communication, equal treatment, and real accountability. I’m not here to play politics. I’m here to do the work — the real work — for every resident of Swanton Township.
I’ve worked as a consultant for over 23 years. Interactions with local, state and federal officials has taught me a lot about negotiations and professionalism . As a Senior Project Manager I’ve managed everything from small projects to projects valued at over $3 million dollars.
