Candidate Statement:
As a resident of Strongsville for over 22 years, I have a great understanding of our city and the great resources that our residents enjoy. My wife Adela and I have two children that have received and are still receiving an outstanding education from our city schools. As an active community member and member of the Strongsville Optimist Club, I have volunteered with many events the club has initiated.
With the Optimist Club, I have been past president and chairman of various committees that include the scholarship committee, Reading Buddies, and fundraisers such as our golf outings and reverse raffles. I have also been president of the Ashley Oaks Homeowners Association and board member. My experience as a teacher and a leader in the community allows me to have a unique perspective of the issues that are important today. As a resident of this great city and as an educator, I have the experience that will help our district move through these trying times.
