"I am grateful for the opportunity to serve you, your employees, students and our community. During my unique, 23
year career in real estate, business, marketing and economic development, I have been blessed with the opportunity
to view real estate, business, economic development and communities nation wide, from "all sides", instilling a
discipline, and the highest level of professionalism and ethical standards in setting goals and accomplishing tasks.
With lifelong fulfillment and accomplishments in real estate and economic development, it is an honor and privilege
to have the opportunity to share with your employees, students, and peers some of the methods and initiatives that
have been most successful for business, industry, our workforce and community. In Kentucky, and across our nation,
I have had the pleasure to work with some of the finest professionals in industry, community and our state, together
realizing great rewards in economic, community, workforce and real estate development. I look forward to the
chance to serve you, your business and industry, and our communities."
