I will begin serving as Milton Township Supervisor in March 2026. My wife and I have lived in Kestrel Hills for 17 years. I am originally from South Bend and retired after a 35-year career as a Chief Human Resources Officer with Elkhart General and Saint Joseph Health Systems. My experience also includes roles in industry and teaching at the Notre Dame Mendoza College of Business.
I hold a BS in Business from Ball State University and a Master’s in Human Resources from the University of Illinois. My wife Julie, a retired nurse, and I have been married for 47 years. We have three adult children—two who served in the Navy and one who works at Press Ganey—and two grandchildren.
I am committed to serving Milton Township with integrity, transparency, and compassion. Please feel free to contact me with any questions, suggestions, or concerns.
