Summary

Over the past 20 years, I have fulfilled many different leadership roles. Most currently, I am the advisor for the Interact Club at our high school. Our role as a club is to provide community assistance and work to support those in need. We work collaboratively with our local Rotary Club to identify and meet needs. I am also on the Executive Board of our Wrestling Booster Club. In this role, I organize events and fundraisers.
