Candidate for
Green Party County Council; County of Fresno

I was born in Buffalo, New york in October of 1956. I have one younger sister. I was primarily raised in Marietta, Ohio, which is a small city on the Ohio River in southeastern Ohio. After graduating from high school, I went to Ohio State and graduated in 1978. I then enrolled in a graduate program at Kent State. After earning my masters degree, I started law school in 1980 at Southwestern University in Los Angeles.

After completing law school I moved to Fresno. Since 1985 I have worked as an attorney for the U.S. Small Business Administration. In my spare time, I enjoy playing tennis.

As the child of two fervent Republicans, my own political position has drifted consistently to the left since I first voted back in the 70's. I registered Green as the result of the Nader campaigns for president. I fully embrace the 10 Key Values of the Green Party.
