I am a local Christian Slidell businessman. I have been involved in numerous community and church activities and I was elected to the office of City Council District G unopposed.
I love this community and want to be able to serve
and give back to the town I've lived in most of my life.
I have lived in Slidell since 1971. I entered 1st Grade at St. Margaret Mary and completed my studies there before entering St. Paul's High School in Covington.
Upon completion of high school studies, I entered the engineering program at Louisiana Tech University and received a Bachelors of Science in Engineering.
I went to work in the oil and gas industry for a few years before starting my first company. I later started two other businesses in Slidell. I have worked in the Limousine business and Motor home Rental business for many years.
Why did I run for office?
I love Slidell!!!.
I want this community to be a place for mine and your family to live, enjoy and prosper in. I am concerned about the effects that the two hurricanes have had on the quality of life and I understand the need for planning and zoning.
I am a businessman with engineering skills and management abilities...
and
I am ready to make a difference!
What's important to me?
I believe that God, Family and Community
are the most important things to me.
I believe that Jesus Christ died for his sins and rose from the dead.
I believe that everyone has the opportunity to have a
relationship with God through his son Jesus. "My faith is what steers me". It helps me
discern the decisions that affect my life.
After God and family, I have a true love of our community. I love the parish of St. Tammany,
the State of Louisiana,
and specifically Slidell.
I don't like the fact that Louisiana is usually
at the bottom of the desirable lists
and at the top of the undesirable ones.
What do I do for Fun?
I enjoy many different activities and clubs. Laura and I are active members of the Rolls Royce Owners Club (on the local, as well as the national level). We both serve on several committees within our church.
When the weather cools off, I enjoy Duck hunting in the marshes of South Louisiana and deer hunting in the mountains of West Virginia. I also enjoy offshore fishing and I am a licensed Pilot and certified Scuba Diver.
