Knox County is our home.
Tennessee, specifically Knox County, is one of the best places to live. Some were lucky to be born here but, over the past 10 years we have seen more people relocate because of the beauty, proximity to lakes, mountains and culture.
My family fell in love with the area and this is now our home. My goal as your Trustee is to assure public funds are collected, managed properly and the latest technology that lowers the cost of collection. As your Trustee, I will increase visibility to the public on how much and where the funds are being collected and invested.
My educational background includes a B.S. in engineering , M.S management, General manager from Columbia, Executive education at Harvard and Executive education for Lean Manufacturing at University of Tennessee. Go VOLS!!

Community
Giving back to our community is critical important and in my career I have been on the board of the Make-A-Wish Foundation, Zoo, Young Entrepreneurs and other organizations focused on helping others.
Financial Acumen
Managing a large business provided myself exposure to managing large dollar transactions and best practices in managing budgets. Working with other officials we can continue to optimize every public dollar collected and spent.
Accountability
During my career I have always been focused on finding tangible results that benefit all stakeholders. As your Trustee I will do the same as your Trustee and be accountable for the results. I will be accountable to each Knox County citizen for every dollar collected and distributed.
