Why are you passionate about FCIF?

“My favorite part of serving on the Board of the FCIF is that we are provided many of the stories of the people who are helped by the organization. I am excited to be a part of an organization that helps others within the same industry that I am fortunate enough to earn my living. The most rewarding part is to learn about the stories of the people who were unfortunate to undergo a major illness or other misfortune but were able to overcome challenging circumstances because of the assistance that they received from the FCIF.”

Interesting Facts

“I am fortunate to be married to a wonderful wife and have two amazing teenage daughters, currently 15 and 16 years old.
