I was born and raised in Knox County and I lived in the Bluegrass area until I moved for school. After serving in the Army for 5 years, I came back to my home, where I now serve as a Corporate Branch Manager at a local financial institution and as the Director of the Hardin Valley Planning Advocates, a local organizing group which works with our elected officials to advocate for smart development.

All my life I have seen this haphazard way of developing. The saying ‘build as you go and worry about it later’ has dire consequences for our neighbors. I believe in continued investments in growth areas that are going to allow for sustained, progressive, and proactive developments for our communities. My 12 years in banking and finance have given me crucial insight, and I am ready to tackle this problem!
