NFB-NEWSLINE is an audio reading service for the print impaired. I have held a variety of positions with Independence Place of Kentucky, a Center for Independent Living, Wells Fargo and Winn-Dixie over my 30 plus year career where attention to detail, dependability, excellent customer service skills, and problem solving have been core attributes for me in conducting business.

I earned my M.B.A. in Finance from Golden Gate University located in San Francisco, CA and a B.A. from the University of Kentucky in Business Administration.

I am a member of the National Federation of the Blind of Kentucky (NFBK) Board of Directors serving as First Vice President, NFB Kentucky Technology Assistance Division serving as President, Governor's Councils: Kentucky Assistive Technology Service Network (KATS) and Kentucky Office of Vocational Rehabilitation (OVR Council. I served as Chairman of the Kentucky Office for the Blind SRC from April 2017 through October 2018. In July 2019, I became a member of the National Association of Blind Merchants (NABM).
