I was born and raised in Seguin and attended Texas Lutheran College. My involvement with youth has spanned many years working with several local sports associations as a coach and administrator. Professionally, I have had a career in sales and a passion for helping raise money for non-profit organizations that are involved with children. My fundraising work has led to me being selected as Citizen of the Year by both the Seguin Chamber of Commerce and the Seguin Gazette newspaper. I am now on staff to help financially support this tremendous organization that helps abused children and their families through this trying time.
