Salvation Army Board of Directors EDUCATION AND TRAINING
I graduated from Olivet College and completed two career level advanced courses in the Marines and did some graduate couses with USC while overseas. Prior to my time as a County Commissioner I worked as a financial planner. EXPERIENCE
I have lived in this area for almost twenty years and know the community well. While in the Marine , I moved my family often and have a real appreciaton for what is involved in relocating a family. I quickly learned the value of having a professional RealtorĀ® working for me. As a Marine Officer I learned the values of integrity, loyalty, dedication and committment. I apply those same values as a Realtor. My wife is also a Realtor and when it benefits out clients we work together.
