I grew up in Huff's Church, which is a small village (and I do mean small) in Berks County.  I moved to Kutztown in 1992 and have been here ever since.  Prior to that I lived in Topton, Longswamp, and Panama City Beach, FL. In addition to living in Kutztown, I have also worked for our public school district for the last several years.  I think one of the most interesting moments of my job occurred just recently when a parent called to tell me that the bus had not yet picked up her student.  After investigating I learned that the bus was running very late because it got stuck behind several horse and buggies.  Only in Kutztown!

I joined the Rotary a few years ago after several of my friends encouraged me to do so.  I thought it would be a good way to give back to the community and to help out others who are not as fortunate as I am.  It has been a great pleasure to be among people who care so much about their community and their neighbors.  So far I have participated in serving meals at a local church and of course A Taste of Kutztown.  I look forward to helping out more in the future.
