My wife and I love the Berlin Township community, the people and lifestyle have been exactly what we have wanted for the past 22 years.  We have raised our 3 Daughters here, Logan & Lauren graduated from Olentangy HS.  You may know me from Softball (Logan) or from Keynotes Show Choir (Lauren)  Our third Daughter, Kimela is a Junior at Berlin HS this year. 

I would like to serve as a Trustee to ensure that the rapid growth our township is experiencing continues to follow zoning restrictions and the vision that is outlined in the Comprehensive Land Use Plan. This will allow for our community to be developed in a manner that continues with the spirit and intent of our past while looking to the future!

If elected, I can draw upon experience I have in my professional career. I spent 17 years working in the golf course management business at 4 new construction golf courses in Central Ohio: New Albany Country Club, Jefferson Country Club, Scioto Reserve Country Club and Kinsale Golf & Fitness Club. At Scioto Reserve and Kinsale I was involved in overall development of the property, so I have great insight into the planning and construction of residential and commercial projects. 

I greatly appreciate the remaining agricultural land that is in Berlin Township. Working in Agribusiness for the last 17 years I have helped companies that serve Farmers across North America. Experience from my 20 years serving on the BZA Board, the past 7 as Chairman will be valuable and able to recognize the importance of the Township Zoning Code and how it applies to residents and businesses.

I believe the growth in the next 10 years will be unlike anything seen in the township since it’s founding in 1820. I ask for your support and your vote on November 4th, 2025!

Also, if you like my message, can I ask you to forward this to five neighbors or friends in the Township? It would be greatly appreciated!
