Summary

I am a seasoned professional with two-decades of executive level experience across a broad range of industries and disciplines that uniquely qualify me for the position of Economic Development Director. My career has spanned financial services, commercial construction and development and now as a sitting Branch Director of the Cleveland Branch of the Federal Reserve. Throughout every stop in my career, I have focused on increasing my skills and knowledge in all aspects of business, management and leadership.


I have lived in Pittsburgh since 1972, with side trips to Los Angeles and Northern VA. I love this city and county and want to use the skills that I have developed over the last 30-years to drive growth and inclusion and to help make our County a place where everyone can thrive.
