For over 30 years as a practicing lawyer and businessman, I've witnessed the impact elected officials can have on the lives within our community.  Serving in public office is both a privilege and a responsibility to be taken very seriously.  I am honored to be considered to serve the people of Washington County as a District Court Judge.

​

My parents taught me at a very young age that service to family - and to the community - is extremely important.  They led by example and I have tried to follow their lead.  My wife Jacqueline and I have supported, coached and volunteered for our children's sports teams and organizations, and I have served as president of church council, treasurer of the Fayetteville High School Booster Club, Assistant Scout Master and treasurer of Boy Scout Troop 116 and  president of my neighborhood's POA.  Now that our three children are grown, I would like to continue my family's tradition by serving the community as a District Court Judge.
