I was raised in Olathe, Kansas, watching the city grow from
less than 8,000 people to over 80,000 people. In 1983, I graduated from the
University of Kansas with a dual bachelor´s degree in accounting and
business administration.
Beginning my career in the medical industry selling
durable medical equipment, I started my own business in medical sales with
a partner when we moved to North Texas. I had a business of preparing tax
returns for the last 7 years prior to joining the staff at Patrick L. Murray
as a staff accountant in January 2005.
I met my lovely wife of 14 years in
my church in Kansas. We moved to Plano in 1994, purchasing a home in McKinney
in 1996. We have enjoyed watching McKinney grow and love the mixture of the
old downtown and the new communities being built.
We have three children--two
daughters and a son. I am an active member at the First Baptist Church in
McKinney. Also, I enjoyed serving on the Board of Directors for 2 years
at the Samaritan Inn as treasurer, assisting them as they expanded to their
new facility. My hobbies include spending time with my family, chess, Bible
study, and camping. |
