President

Hi! I have lived in Brandon, MS since 2012.  I am a pharmacist, but mainly do consulting work now.  My wife, Katie and I, have a blended family with 4 children ranging in ages from 8 to 26, 3 of which have gone through the NWR school system.  In my free time, I enjoy woodworking, cooking, family time, and taking vacations of the beaten path.  Our youngest daughter Charlotte, will be in 3rd grade at Highland Bluff Elementary this year.  I am looking forward to serving as President of the PTO this year.
