Hometown: I’m a Navy Brat and have lived all over. San Diego is my longest and favorite hometown!

Why FFAid: To continue helping our members and serving their needs. I have served on the Sports Club, Local 145 Board, and on the Credit Committee for the FCU, this was one spot I hadn’t served. And SDFRA does really important work.

A person who inspires you the most: I’m inspired by many people who continue to strive for excellence and are humble about their accomplishments. I remember a specific individual who spoke with me about “doing the right thing” on a number of occasions and it still works for me.

How do you give back: I give back by contributing as often as I can to a few charitable organizations that really make a difference in this country, and to our community. I contribute time and money to each.

Tell us something about yourself: I consider myself to be one of the luckiest people in that I have had a good career and worked with outstanding people. I have so much to be thankful for, and remind myself of that often. I am thankful for the opportunities and great good fortune that I have experienced.
