I am a 40-year resident of Eagle River. I love my community, and I am dedicated to making it a better place to live and work.

I believe that public service and involvement are important callings.  Over the years I have been involved in many professional and community service endeavors, including:

• I served for nine years as the Chair of the Zoning Board of Examiners & Appeals.
• I served as President of the Eaglewood Homeowners Association for four years, the largest homeowner’s association in Anchorage at that time.
• I served as Assistant City Manager for several cities in Colorado.
• I served as a member of the Anchorage School Board, where I became very well acquainted with the ASD budget. In my capacity as School Board Member, I had the privilege of visiting every school in Eagle River to learn of their specific issues.
• I was a founding member of Eagle River Presbyterian Church and served as a Ruling Elder for over ten years.
• I have coached many youth sports teams including soccer, Little League Baseball, and basketball as well as volunteered as an ASHA diving judge for over ten years.
• I served as an Assistant Scout Master for a local Boy Scout Troop.

My community ties run deep across a broad spectrum of interests and activities.
