This information is provided by the candidate

I serve as a Springfield Commissioner with the sole purpose of making a meaningful contribution to my community and fellow citizens.

Springfield has been my home for over 35 years. I have been married to my wife Patricia for 42 years and we have 3 daughters; Amy, Megan and Susan. Our daughters graduated from St. Francis of Assisi and Cardinal O'Hara High School.

It was a pleasure to coach them when they participated in sports with the Springfield AA and the Springfield Youth Club.

I have worked hard with my fellow commissioners to maintain and improve the level of services our township provides. We have done this with a philosophy of fiscal responsibility and integrity.

I believe in giving back to the community and our country. I served proudly in the U.S.Army-with a one year service tour in Vietnam and then served with the United States Continental Intelligence Command/Special studies division at Fort Brag, North Carolina.

For the last 17 years, I have Co-Chaired the Leukemia Golf Benefit, a golf outing that has raised over $180,000 for The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society.

In the business world I know what it takes to set goals, meet a payroll and lead change initiatives. I founded a financial services firm headquartered in Media, PA; we serve the needs of many individuals and businesses in the Delaware Valley.

I have no political agenda other than to serve as your Commissioner. I respect the rich tradition Springfield enjoys, I will continue to work hard to preserve this heritage and to make Springfield better today than yesterday, and still better for many tomorrows.
