Education:  MBA

Length of Time a Durham Resident:  10 Years

Previous service on Town committees:  Durham Energy Committee

Explain your interest in being elected to the Town Council:  I'm throwing my hat in the ring for the Town Council position. Since moving here, I've wanted to give back to my community which is why I first served on the Energy Committee, but travel demands with Siemens forced a pause.

I've spent 12 years running nuclear power plants on submarines as a member of the U.S. Navy, a decade at Intel Corporation doing process engineering, and 14 years with Siemens in energy management. My recent shift to Siemens Digital Industries Software gives me the flexibility needed for local commitments.

I wrapped up my MBA in November 2023, rounding out my skill set. My candidacy is not just about my professional background; it's a testament to my genuine passion for this community. I am committed to leveraging my skills, experiences, and wisdom to address the unique needs of Durham and contribute to its growth and prosperity.

I'm not into fancy words, just action. I'm here to get things done and make a positive impact. Your support means a lot.
