Bio

After my eight years in the US Army and USAR, I moved to a career in the hospitality industry in hotels. Except for a year in the Financial Industry as a loan officer, I have spent the last twenty years managing hotels. Now that I have completed my MBA and have so much experience with the public, I can work in the SSA to make a bigger impact in East Texas.

For twenty years, I have been managing hotels. Meeting travelers and making sure they are properly cared for and training my team to exceed the Guests expectations has been just as rewarding as my military service. At hotels, I get to experience the entire spectrum of humanity. I have learned a lot and get to share that knowledge with my friends and family. Together, we are all part of a great nation in an amazing world.
