Occupation...Greenhouse Production.
Education...High school and college courses as required to
succeed.
I’ve lived in Wheeling...35 years.
I ran for public office to...provide a voice of common
sense and business sense to the board.
My political aspiration is to be...done. My aspirations
are not political. I want to guide Wheeling to a more
progressive path and allow it then to flourish.
Before I was a trustee, I...minded my own family
businesses until local politics inflicted itself onto them.
The
slap in the face that awakened me from my political apathy was
ultimately responsible for encouraging me to run.
The most important thing I do as a trustee is...use the
diverse field of experiences I have acquired in determining
policies for the Village.
I would like people to remember me for...exercising and
possibly also for defending personal/property rights.
The accomplishment I’m most proud of is...my children.
My favorite Village event is...anything where I meet the
people.
The thing I like best about Wheeling is...diversity.
My favorite place in Wheeling is...family greenhouses in
spring.
My idea of a great day is...traveling, seeing new places
and things.
Three words that best describe me...diplomatic, patient,
introverted.
I wish I had more time to...be with my kids, read,
sculpt, carve, draw.
I belong to...the Cook County Farm Bureau.
My favorite charity is...anything for children.
People who know me well say I’m...open minded.
The last good book I read was...Lost Rights by
James Bovard.
My favorite quotation is..."Make something
happen."
