I graduated from Vincennes University with an associates degree of applie science. I have served 25 years in the United States Army where I achieved a rank of Sargent First Class. I served 4 years of active duty, then continued my service in the Indiana National Guard for 21 years. Also, in my working career I drove Big Truck for over 20 years which gives me a well rounded working experience. Furthermore, I have served as your county surveyor for over two years now. In that time, I have taken many classes to increase my knowledge and skills required to do this job to the best of my ability. When necessary, I have not been afraid to seek advice or ideas from the surrounding county surveyors to further educate myself on the issues and potential solutions to better serve the people of Starke County. In short, I believe I am more qualified for this position and would be the best person for the job. I would like your consideration and vote in the upcoming election. Again, thank you Starke County and I encourage everyone to vote in the November election.
