Flower Mound Town Council, Place 4

Born and raised in Michigan, I moved to Bedford, Texas in 1983 before becoming a resident of Flower Mound in 2005.  In 2018 I was elected to the Flower Mound Town Council and voted as Mayor Pro-Tem in 2020.  I have more than 30 years of business leadership experience working for large companies such American Airlines, Sabre, Electronic Data Systems and HP before I retired in 2012.  Most of my career was in Supply Chain Management however, my last role was in Account Management on a team which provided IT services to two large accounts, each with annual revenues of more than $500M.  Before I was elected to Flower Mound Town Council, Place 4, I attended almost every Town Council and Planning and Zoning Meeting for 3-1/2 years.  I am a graduate of Aquinas College in Grand Rapids, Michigan.  I also graduated from the Flower Mound Chamber of Commerce’s Leadership Course, the Flower Mound Citizen’s Academy, the Flower Mound Citizen’s Police Academy and was attending the Flower Mound Fire Academy before it was shut down due to COVID in March of 2020.  Previously I served on the Flower Mound Board of Adjustments/Oil and Gas Appeals Board, was a member of the Flower Mound Citizen’s Police Safety Patrol and a past President of the Pecan Meadows HOA. 

My wife Annette and I have four children and five grandchildren, all of which live in nearby communities.  My interests include family, travel, collector cars and serving our town.
