A little bit about me
I was born and raised in Carstairs and have spent most of my life working and raising a family in Mountain View County. During the time I spent outside of the County my family and I were living in Saskatchewan, Saudi Arabia and Greece where I was involved in agriculture related activities. I have been a farmer, an educator, licensed trade person, owned and operated a mixed farm, owned and operated an international export company. I’m running for Councillor in Division 1 to ensure residents have a clear voice in county decisions. My focus is on openness, support for agriculture, and building a strong and sustainable future for both the County of Mountain View and Division 1.
