I have been a member of the guild since the early 2000’s and have long admired the dedicated work of the volunteer leaders and committee chairs. I’m seeking the role of Vice President to contribute to that long tradition of guild support.

I’m confident I can contribute to board decisions with enthusiasm and practical life experience while acting at all time in the best interests of the guild membership.

For the prior 15 years, I’ve been fully employed at APL in the facilities management department. Most of those years were spent as supervisor of the campus operations team resulting in countless late hour phone calls and often disrupting my attendance at guild events. I’ve stepped down from that role and now serve as an individual contributor infrastructure expert.

In my woodworking life, I’ve somehow managed to find some design creativity despite the formal education of two different engineering degrees. My box designs are generally well received, and I truly enjoy the challenge of executing by hand precision work on a smaller scale which I sell at the HorseSpirit Arts Gallery.

I have been the treasurer of our condominium building and the condominium regime with a budget in excess of $400K.

My goal would be to keep tabs on our finances, support the guild’s goals and maintain our financial records. I have experience and feel I can do a good job.
