Elected to office in November 2006, I began my first term as Perry Township Trustee January 1, 2007. Although this is the first elected position I have held, I am no newcomer to public service. In 1991 I joined the fire service in Marion County. My career as a firefighter began at Franklin Township Fire Department, where I served as Lieutenant of Operations. In 1998 I left Franklin Township and filled the role of Injury Prevention and Public Information Officer for my hometown fire department in the City of Beech Grove. After retiring in 2006 from the fire service he decided to run for Perry Township Trustee and was successful in doing so by being elected with 68% of the vote.
Throughout my career I have been a leader to others in various capacities. For ten years, I was not only a member of Indiana Task Force One but also was a team leader, program manager, and FEMA and SEMA liaison. While at Beech Grove Fire Department I was elected Beech Grove District President for the Indianapolis Metropolitan Professional Firefighters Association and was a member of the executive board. I lead the district union members, organized projects, raised money, and negotiated the first collective bargaining agreement for the City of Beech Grove firefighters and communication employees.
I am a member of the National Fire Protection Association, National Fire Academy Alumni Association, Indianapolis Retired Firefighters Association, and Lincoln Roundtable. Recognized for his professional and community service, he has received several awards and acknowledgements. These include the Governor's Workplace Safety Award, Beech Grove Fire Department Firefighter of the Year in both 2002 and 2003, Extraordinary Personal Action Award from the American Red Cross, Presidential Academic Fitness Award, State of Indiana Community Service Award, and Beech Grove Community Service Award.
