I'm so proud of my family. We have three elementary school kids who keep us on the run. When I'm not in the office you'll probably find me outside checking on my fruit trees and berry bushes or testing my soil’s PH levels. I’ve planted over 40 trees and read a lot about afforestation. The phrase that stuck with me is “The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago. The second best time is today.” I love my compost pile, and I try to always keep gaining practical knowledge about nature and our world.
I coach the kids' football, baseball, softball, and ice hockey teams, and volunteer at the schools whenever I can. I serve as Treasurer on our regional YMCA’s Corporate Board as well as Board member and Treasurer for the Lewisburg Little League. In the past, I have served on the Board of Directors at the West Shore Chamber of Commerce and volunteered with Big Brothers and Big Sisters for over 15 years.
Professionally, I have 20 years experience in the financial services industry. I have earned the Retirement Income Certified Professional (RIPC©) designation from The American College of Financial Services and the Chartered Retirement Planning Counselor (CRPC©) from the College for Financial Planning, and have an MBA from Lebanon Valley College.
