Growing up at the Boy's Home of North Carolina - I learned that an education would open doors of opportunity I never knew existed. I built my life around the philosophy that my life would not be determined by where I came from - but would be determined by how far I believed I could go.
After graduating from college, I became a classroom teacher and then went on to become a school administrator - here in North Carolina. During my 46 years career, my interaction with countless young people made me the person that I am today.
I met Janis, my wife of 57 years while in college. We have two sons and 2 grandchildren. We love traveling with our dog Cam and enjoy making new friends. We are both avid Caolina Panther fans!
In 2023, I was elected to the position of Chairman for the Democratic Congression District 7 - which consists of Brunswick, New Hanover, Pender, Columbus, Cumberland, Bladen, and Robeson counties.
Brunswick County is a wonderful place to call home. and it is one of the fastest growing counties in North Carolina. However, over development has brought unintended consequences resulting in clear cutting of our forest land and a severe burden on our county infrastructure.
The lack of concern by the current county commissioners was the driving force behind my decision to run for public office.
I believe that I have the leadership skills to find answers for today's concerns and the vision to develop solutions for tomorrow's challenges.
Your contributions will enable us to meet our goals and win in November.
Please send me your thought and concerns - we will make Brunswick County better TOGETHER
