I was born and raised in Cincinnati. Growing up as one of six children in my family, I learned the value and pride of hard work and self-sufficiency. I carry these lessons with me today.
I graduated from St. Xavier High School, and Kenyon College in Gambier, Ohio. I earned an MBA degree and a law degree from The Ohio State University. I am a lawyer employed with Fifth Third Bank, and have a solid background and understanding of issues and challenges faced by small businesses.
My wife, Lee, and I are the proud parents of two daughters, and we make our home in Anderson Township. We are members of Immaculate Heart of Mary Parish, and are and have been active in many non-profit organizations.
