Biography:
I am married 20+ years and father of three. I have worked in Information Technology for 25+ years. I have been blessed to call Sonora home for the last 10+ years coming back to raise our children here where my wife’s family is from. I truly enjoy watching our kids grow up in this community. I look forward to continue providing support to prepare them to be confident and successful as they move onto adulthood. I believe the focus should always be on the children’s best interests and will guide my decisions accordingly. I am grateful for the opportunity and support to be a SUHSD Trustee and will serve diligently.
