Your Interest*
I moved to Waukee six years ago and am extremely happy here. It has grown so much in last couple years and was fun
watching it happen. I am looking to be more involved in the community that my two kids will grow up in and be able to help
shape this grow ing community would be very fulfilling. My years in manufacturing as a leader as a Design Engineer,
Maintenance/Automation Manager and Plant Manager had given me valuable skills in: problem solving, project management,
process improvement/lean, budget management, increased efficiencies, decreased waste, time management and mostly
importantly strong communication skills. I would be happy to present my case in more detail to the Waukee City Council if
needed.
Please describe why you are interested in serving on the Waukee City Council, and what makes you a good candidate.
I am available on June 27.
