With over fifty years’ experience in construction within Northeastern Oregon, few others have the depth and breadth of knowledge in the region.

In the past he has been on several Baker City commissions, coached little league soccer, basketball and football for YMCA, and helps out with local education such as through the SMART elementary school reading program and with School District 5J Long Range Facilities Planning.
