I retired as a senior officer from the United States Air Force on 31 Dec 2004, after serving for over 31 years. I also worked as a Senior Program Analyst for the Department of Homeland Security, Long Range Radar Joint Program Office, at Langley Air Force Base Virginia.

My favorite hobbies are playing golf and traveling. I like red wines (Cabernet Sauvignon) and white wines (German - Spatlase and Auslese).

I currently serve on the Mary Immaculate Hospital Board of Directors and the Bon Secours Hampton Roads Board of Directors. I'm also the 2-year Trustee for the Knights of Columbus, Council 5480. I'm also a member of the St. Jerome Pastoral Council, serving as the Chair for the Communications Committee.
