I represent you by attending, leading and organizing multiple boards, committees, state and Federal agency collaborations, and community related activities. I look forward to serving the next two years and to continue down the path of conservative smart growth.

My family and I live in the Lakeview at Pointe Vista neighborhood where I previously served as the first home owner on the developer board of directors. In 1995 I earned a Bachelor of Science in Animal Science and Organic Chemistry. I work for Motorola’s most reputable distributor in the US, Mobile Communications America as a sales manager. I am a Board of Director for the Lake Cities Chamber of Commerce, Director on the Denton County United Way Workforce Leadership task force, as well as previously served on the School board for the private school that my daughter attended. The Denton County Community Emergency Response team certified me for search and rescue as well as Disaster Relief and Recovery when volunteers are called upon. I love to boat and play softball every Friday during the 5 seasons annually. I also own a sports memorabilia store (The Cowboy House) that supports the Lake Cities area, and last year we donated to over 25- 501c3 organizations to help our community.
