About Me:

My wife and I, along with our two children, one currently in college and the other a senior at Elkins High School, have proudly called Riverstone home for over 15 years. I currently serve as the elected Director and Vice President of FBC LID 19. In this role, I have applied my skills in strategic planning, financial oversight, and district development for the improvement of our citizens. This includes overseeing the opening of a new pump station in Riverstone & 2nd under construction. I am eager to bring my experience and dedication to Riverstone as the HOA Board Member. I will leverage my expertise to drive meaningful change and foster growth within our community. With a unique perspective that blends analytical insight with a collaborative approach to decision-making, I am confident in my ability to contribute effectively to the Board’s objectives. My background as a successful entrepreneur, combined with extensive experience in stakeholder engagement, positions me to support the HOA’s mission through strategic innovation, sound financial planning, and effective governance. I am passionate about advancing Riverstone’s community goals and delivering measurable results for our residents.
