We are still involved in the community with our local USA club and local law enforcement with educational seminars and demonstrations for the local school children.

I currently manage a department with eight employees that averages over 3.6 million dollars in retail sales per year. As a Kroger employee, I have completed many business, marketing and leadership courses that are relative to the business of USA.
I was a charter member of the River City Schutzhund Club in Evansville, IN that was formed in 1982. I served as co-training director and club helper. In 1983, I attended my first USA General Board Meeting in Peoria, IL as a delegate for River City. My family moved to Bowling Green, KY in 1984 and we joined the Western KY Schutzhund Club where I served as club training and trial helper under the direction of Gene England. We later moved to White Bluff, TN and started the Cumberland Valley Schutzhund & Police Club. I have trained and titled seven GSD's. Two of my GSD's, I trained from puppy to SchH 3. I have been a trial helper at one national event and several regional events and have trained several club helpers. Two of my club helpers were selected as trial helpers for numerous regional events and three national events. I am a USA Teaching Helper.
I have served as Trial Chairman at 2 Regional Championships (1996 and 2001), a regional conformation championship (2002), an AWDF Championship (2005), a USA World Qualifier (1999), a USA GSD Championship (2002), a USA HOT, Youth and OB Championship (2006), a USA GSD National Championship (2004) and the USA Sieger Show on successive weekends. That makes five national events and three regional events that I have served as trial chairman and served as the local club co host chairman at the 2004 Sieger show. I was responsible for bringing Royal Canin on board to sponsor the 2004 USA Sieger Show and GSD National Championship and eventually brought them on board as USA's Primary sponsor.
I also was responsible for bringing them on board as main sponsor of the 2008 WUSV Championship. My work bringing Royal Canin on board with USA has netted our organization more than $130,000 in sponsorship funds since 2004.
I have been a delegate at many USA General Board meetings during my 25 year plus USA membership before being elected to the position of USA Mid Eastern Regional Director in 1999 and again in 2001, USA Vice President in 2002 and 2004. While serving as Vice President I also served as Chair of the Helper Committee and was responsible for bringing the current committee into being. With their help we introduced our current USA Helper Program. I assumed the position of USA President in 2005 when Jim Elder resigned as President and I was elected as USA President in 2006.

I served 4 years as a member of the Board of Inquiry. I served six years as a member of the Nominating Committee. Four years as chair of that committee. I also served two years as a member of the Judges Committee. My vast experience as a member of many of USA's elected committees before becoming an EB member have given me a thorough knowledge of the working parts of USA. As President, my appointments to committees and formation of new committees have proved extremely valuable to USA. I have also initiated friendly and open discussions with the President of the WDA.
I have been delegate for USA to the AWDF since 2001. I was elected as Vice President of the AWDF in 2006. Through USA's strengthening of our involvement in the AWDF and my dedication to open and honest discussion with the leadership of the WUSV, SV and the FCI Working Commission we have developed healthy and harmonious relationships and the support that is necessary to maintain USA's position in both the national and world communities.
