Biographical Details
I've been married to my sweetheart Alex for the past 10 years. We have three bright and enthusiastic girls. I am privileged to stay home with my children, which can be overwhelming at times, but is worth it. I am currently serving in my church's Relief Society Presidency. I am a very active Board member of the PTA in my community. I am also working with my daughter Laura's Brownie Troop. I like staying busy. I also enjoy taking my girls to the museums, local children's plays and puppet shows, and I enjoy our family day excursions on Saturdays. I love to read. I have been involved in many political campaigns at the polls, Republican Headquarters, or wherever I'm needed. I am running a recycling program of laser cartridges and used cell phones to help fund the local school in our neighborhood. I try to teach my kids to have a volunteer spirit in our neighborhood by taking them to Senior Communities to visit people, and involving them in as many service projects as possible.
