Term ending in 2011

Freeport has been my home for 8 years. I am a native of Nebraska, and twice I have been transferred to Freeport, with two different companies. The first time was upon graduation from the University of Nebraska in 1988, when I quickly fell in love with the community. The second time was in 1997, when I quickly fell in love with my future wife and knew this was the place to call home. I was soon married to Kimberly Rohr, who is a life long resident of Freeport. We have been married 5 years, and we have two children; Hannah who is 4, and Brennen who is 2.

My family and I belong to Immanuel Lutheran Church, where I have been a substitute Sunday School teacher and have participated in an annual Passion Week drama. I have served on the board of Directors for the Big Brothers/Big Sisters, The Stephenson County CVB, The NICAA Board of Directors, and have been a volunteer for the Jane Addams Festival of Trees fundraiser.

The residents of the 6th Ward have elected me to serve them twice, and I am working hard to be their voice in all City affairs. In November of 2005, I was appointed to the Alderman-at-Large seat. In this position, I will serve all seven wards.

As a District Sales Manager for SYSCO foods I have the opportunity to stay in touch with large numbers of the Freeport business community, as well as it's residents, and I thoroughly enjoy the constant stream of input and ideas I receive to help better the community.

I am thankful for the opportunity to serve the residents of the City of Freeport. I encourage anyone with a concern, question, or quandary to contact me.
