Longtime Resident

I have been a resident of Arcadia for 37 years. I raised my family here. I taught here for 33 wonderful years connecting with students, parents and the community. I do not seek City Council for the position, politics or prestige. I seek to continue representing the people of Arcadia, making the best decisions for our future together.

My children are grown. Blennie, my beautiful wife is in Assistance League. I am retired and I have the hours necessary to fulfill the job of City Council.

I have a personal connection with over 12,000 students and their families, community leaders, church, service organizations, the Arcadia Schools, and friends.
