Born December 27, 1960 the 3rd of 5 children in Campbellsville, KY. I am married to Susan we live just east of Lexington, KY and have 5 adult children Ashley, Amanda, Jack, Ben and Kelly. 2 grandchildren Max and Julia. I enjoy watching various sports, traveling with Susan and friends, playing golf, and working with the landscaping in and around the yard.
I entered the hearing healthcare world in 2005 as an apprentice, became licensed in 2006 and earned my National Board Certification in the fall of 2008. In 2014, I acquired a partnership interest in a Miracle Ear Franchise. I have served as a volunteer with the Mid America Conference on Hearing, The Hearing Aid Association of Kentucky (HAAK) Political Action Committee and with the HAAK board serving as Vice President and President for 6 years. Additionally, I have served 4 years with the Kentucky State Licensing Board for Specialists in Hearing Instruments.
In 2022, I accepted the nomination to serve the International Hearing Society Board as the East Central Governor representing Ohio, Michigan, Indiana and Kentucky. My primary goal as governor is to improve the pathway and speed of licensing for those interested in becoming a dispenser.
