About the Trustee

Birthplace: Chicago, IL
Hometown: Lived in Wheeling since 1956, when my parents moved from Chicago. I believe Wheeling is a great place to live and raise a family.
Family: Twins, Matt and Katie who live and work nearby with their spouse/significant other.
Education: Elementary school at St. Joseph the Worker, High School at Wheeling High School, Bachelor of Science from Creighton University in Omaha, NE and an MBA from Roosevelt University in Chicago.
I believe: The most important thing a Village of Wheeling Trustee can do is to listen to all residents and find out what is important to them. Our community is made up of a diverse group of people who all have one thing in common, we all have chosen to live and raise our families here because we see this as a great place to live.
I belong to: The Wheeling Pavilion Senior Foundation (Treasurer). Our mission is to raise funds for the Wheeling Senior Center to bridge the gap between what Wheeling can supply through our revenue sources and what is needed to enhance the senior experience in Wheeling.
My favorite place in Wheeling: Anywhere I can walk to. I love to walk all over our town, meet people and discover neighborhoods I have never been in.
