I am interested in getting more involved in our community. My wife
grew up here and I convinced her this is where we should move to
raise our family. It's a great size, has great people, has it's own
character and history, and I appreciate the many commisions and
councils that are working hard to help our community continue growing
and progressing without losing our unique, small town identify. I'd like
to contribute to that while getting to know more of my neighbors.
Director of Operations and Engineering
Kasco Marine, Inc. (Prescott, WI)
I have 20 years of experience working in and running manufacturing faciltiies, ranging from
small assembly operations to plastics processing to large medical device companies. I
understand the value that manufacturing brings to a community as well as the challenges of
operating in a smaller community, particularly with our current challenges of supply chain and
staffing. As a resident and home owner in the historic district, I also value the unique history
and character of our local architecture and want to see that continue to be utilized positively in
growing our local economy. Finally, as an avid outdoors person and someone who works in
developing and manufacturing equipment for water quality and waterfront use, I believe our
landscape and waterways are a great asset to be leveraged and cared for. I love working on a
team of individuals with varying backgrounds and views and feel HEDRA offers an opportunity
to cooperate with many of the other commissions in our city.
