Reason you are seeking a seat on the board:

I became heavily involved with the community and district when we were working to consolidate the schools. When the vote passed I thought my work was done but then I decided to run for the board to see the project through. I have now been on the board for 12 years and have had the privilege of learning a lot!

My work experience as a plant manager allows me to bring the view of running a large operation to the table.

My primary reason for continuing with the board is my firm belief that the best thing you can give to a child is an education which then allows them to create the life that they want to live.

My family is dedicated to School Board Service. My father was on the Board in Mexico, NY. I have now been on the board in Corning for 12 years and my nephew serves on the Mexico, NY board. Education is important to us.
