About

I am currently President of the Board of Directors for New Priorities Family Services Inc. in Redmond Oregon, and served as a counselor for at-risk youth for the last 25 years. I am also President of ARC Services Inc. servicing 24 planned unit developments in Central Oregon as an architectural review and compliance specialist with 30 years of experience which has comfortably overlapped my commitments to servicing at-risk youth and their families. I currently supervise OSU intern counselors who work for our facility and help them with their start up business questions. I have made myself available on the Central Oregon Community College, and OSU Cascades campus, to assist students with their career choices and new business consultation while pursuing my degree towards a graduate program at OSU Corvallis.
