My family has been in Arizona for over 100 years. I am originally from Somerton, a rural farm town in southwestern Arizona near Yuma. I have lived in the Phoenix valley over 40 years and in Ahwatukee-Foothills for over 30 years. My wife and I have three grandchildren, two of whom attend schools in the Kyrene School District.
I retired in October 2021 from the City of Phoenix after over 31 years of service to Phoenix residents. I worked in the Parks and Recreation and Human Services Departments providing programs, activities, and resources for youth, teens, adults, and seniors.
Now that I am retired, I will continue to serve the public as an elected official to help make policy that will benefit our constituents and all Arizonans.
