Chairman, Supervisor (term expires December 31, 2020)
What is your professional background?
I am a life-long valley resident, born and raised on the same farm where I currently grow hay and raise cattle. I was an engineering technician for the United States Forest Service in the Flathead Valley, designing and building roads for over 30 years. I have served on the County Weed Board for many years and have been a Supervisor for the FCD Board for over 20 years. I have also been a member of the Montana Association of Conservation Districts (MACD) State Board for over ten years and president for the past four years.
Why do you serve on the board?
I like to give back to the people of the valley, helping to get good conservation projects on the ground that include wise use of our natural resources. I like the whole Conservation District package of on the ground projects, and education of children, teachers and landowners.
