I am a retired law enforcement officer and State Park Superintendent with Arkansas State Parks. I recently completed 39 years of service at Woolly Hollow State Park in Greenbrier. My wife and I of 42 years have lived in Faulkner County for over 40 years. We have three children and four grandchildren. "I've spent my whole life serving my neighbors and community and my focus will be on listening to and representing the people of Faulkner County. I want to take the public service work ethic I learned with Arkansas State Parks to the State House." I am a supporter of public school education and will do what I can to advance public education in the district. I'm willing to walk across the aisle to represent Republicans as well as Democrats to get the work of the state done.
  • Red and Blue I'll work for you
  • I have a desire to work with all lawmakers.
  • I'm looking forward to representing you.
I look up to my father. He was a farmer who taught me my strong work ethic. He also taught me the value of a dollar. When I first started working for him I made 5 dollars for a 12 hour day.
I worked for my dad on the family farm. I worked until I graduated from College.
