I have been an advocate for the Credit Union Movement for 25 over years...I believe cooperatives are where it’s at! In the middle of my financial services career, Credit Unions helped me to establish, grow and brand my small business, The Dry Carpet Guy, for over a decade, before retiring the business in 2020. Currently, I am employed by Holy Family Memorial Credit Union, committed to service leadership and the member's financial experience. In my leadership position, I am responsible for daily operations, talent development of my team, and business development in our communities. I am actively involved in the state network and the national Credit Union Movement. Loving Manitowoc and the Coolest Coast!I am happily married to my first love, Kristen. We are parents to 6 amazing young adults (3 kids of mine and 3 of hers) for whom we are forever grateful.My business experience has taught me that if it is above you to serve, than it is beneath you to lead. My family drives me to be the change I want to see in the world. My cooperative leadership is best expressed by John F Kennedy: "As we express our gratitude, we must never forget that the highest appreciation is not to utter words but to live by them.”Every day provides a new opportunity to be an example of a good husband, father, friend, employee, leader, and person. "Whatever you are, be a good one." --Abraham Lincoln
