Questions & Answers

1. What are your Qualifications for Office? (50 word limit)

I am an attorney in private practice and President of the New Foundation Loan and Building Company. I have served two times on Blue Ash City Council. I have taken a creative and proactive approach to issues facing Blue Ash

2. What plans do you have to address your top three priorities? (100 word limit)

Blue Ash has positioned itself to claim the title "World Class City." This can be realized by open-minded responses to the many opportunities currently before Council. Blue Ash has achieved the prosperity it enjoys by cultivating economic and social diversity. The diversity was created by land use decisions over the past 30 years. I believe what makes Blue Ash unique makes Blue Ash better. The airport, golf course, Grooms Sports Center, Recreation Center, Veteran's Memorial and Town Square separate Blue Ash from typical bedroom suburbs. Blue Ash cannot afford, however, to rest on its laurels. As the economic and population epicenter of the regions moves northward, Blue Ash must continue to distinguish itself from communities seeking to emulate Blue Ash's success.
