I am an Olivia native and graduate from BOLD high school in Olivia. Upon receiving my Bachelor of Science degree in Sales and Marketing I spent 5 years as a sales manager and assistant manager in the furniture industry. In 2009 I joined Thurston, Inc. as Operations Manager and have since gained valuable skills and knowledge while working in all aspects of our business. When I am away from work I enjoy auto racing and spending time with my family. My wife Abby and I have two daughters, Ellie and Mara and we reside from rural Olivia.
