Hobbies/Interests:
Other comments/additional information for consideration:
I have been a board member of multiple social
groups, was a founder of a community business
organization (Seattle Design District Association),
volunteered for multiple campaigns. I served as an
elder for my church and worked as a volunteer
delivering food to elderly shut-ins during covid.
I currently serve as a mentor to two youth
organizations as well as my Alumni association.
I enjoy walking the dogs, taking my nieces and
nephew to science fiction and Comic conventions
and attending just about any live music event I
hear about!
I am a reluctant Seahawks fan, but have little
choice if you know my wife, Dixie.
I enjoy classical economics (really!) and
traveling to all parts of the country
especially NYC and New Orleans (at least once a
year).
My wife and I moved to Tukwila in 2018 after
living in Seattle for 20 years. We love this
community, meeting our neighbors, and want to
help make a positive impact in Tukwila.

I have a deep love for Tukwila, the community where I have lived and worked for 32 years. I enjoy
working with people, both formally and informally, towards the goal of continuing to make this
community a wonderful place to live. I love to tackle challenges, brainstorm unique solutions,
examine data, and together with like-minded people, work towards processes and projects that
improve the quality of life for all in the community.
I have always had a deep respect for and interest in policing and the important role that it plays in
the overall fabric of a community. My interest has actually gone back as far as childhood when, in
sixth grade, our class structure was that of a city, where each student applied for a job and held
that role in the classroom. I applied and was selected to be the police chief, and have never
ceased being interested in this field. In 2017, I was nominated for and selected to be one of 30
people in the Puget Sound region to attend the FBI Citizen's Academy for the Puget Sound region.
The amount I learned during that course was phenomenal, and I continue to remain involved in the
Alumni Association of that group, receiving ongoing trainings and experiences to further my
understanding. I was supposed to be part of the 2020 Tukwila Police Citizens Academy, but we all
know what happened to that this spring. I still look forward to doing that in the future. I am also a
part of The Soup Ladies, a non-profit that serves food and support to first responders in times of
long call-outs. In order to be a part of that group, I took and passed three required FEMA courses
about the national emergency response system and structure.
I have a particular interest in working with issues as they relate to the immigrant/refugee population
of our community, as so many of them come to us with varying views of law enforcement. I think
the opportunity to reach out in unique and creative ways provides us a wonderful opportunity to
build relationships and trust in this area.
I would be honored to work on a community group such as COPCAB, as I believe this area is
critical and impacts all parts of our community.
