Candidate for
State Representative; District 193; Democratic Party

Candidate Bio: I have a degree from Pennsylvania State University in Mechanical Engineering Technology 2004. I received my journeyman machinist papers while working with Hanover Industrial Machine Company HIMCO in 1983. Currently I work in the hydro power generation industry with Voith Siemens Hydro in York. I have helped build the U.S.A.F. C-17 Airlifter with McDonnell Douglas and worked on MD-11/DC-10's, MD-90's in Long Beach, California. I started working in metal shop at Riley Welding and Fabricating in Hanover while attending senior year of high school at New Oxford in 1978.

I grew up here after moving from Northumberland county Shamokin when I was 12 years young. I was born on Holy Thursday April 6, 1961. My mom said it was a Good Friday the next day. I was appointed the guardian of my mother by Adams County Court when my mom Ms. Nellie suffered with Alzheimer's disease in the late 1990's. I became the representative payee for my brother when he was disabled. I have helped my family; maybe I am able to help others too.
