BOARD OF DIRECTORS CANDIDATE

Over the years, Seabrook Island has provided incredible family memories and a wonderful lifestyle, and serving on the SIPOA Board of Directors is an opportunity to give back. By combining my professional background in communications and strategy with my hands-on committee involvement, I am committed to working collaboratively with neighbors and Board Members to preserve our natural environment, optimize our amenities, and foster a stronger, connected Seabrook community.

What started as a family vacation over the Fourth of July week in 2007 turned into a lifetime of memories on Seabrook Island. After 15 years of renting, my wife, Tami and I, purchased a Shadowwood townhome in 2022, and recently transitioned to a Marsh Walk condo boasting breathtaking marsh views, vivid sunsets, and tremendous wildlife. We were drawn to Seabrook with its pristine beaches, majestic sunsets, comprehensive racquet facility, vast community amenities, and “welcoming” atmosphere.

In June 2026, I retired from Wray Ward in Charlotte, NC, capping off a 47-year career in the advertising and marketing industry. As a veteran of B2B and B2C branding and communications, I have spent decades leading strategy and full-funnel marketing campaigns for major regional and global brands, including Bank of America, Greystar, NASCAR, and the NASCAR Hall of Fame.

Over the past two years, I have deeply immersed myself in this community, volunteering on two SIPOA committees (Communications, and Amenities & Activities) and serving on the Seabrook Island Club Racquet’s Committee. Through my work leading the Water Ways Subcommittee—such as introducing two new fishing spots along the Marsh to Breakers Trail—I have put Seabrook’s Vision statement into practice by preserving our natural habitats while creating tangible opportunities for all to connect with and enjoy our island’s unique environment for generations to come.

My civic background also includes decades as an Elder/Deacon at Sardis Presbyterian Church, a Board Member for The Council for Children’s Rights, a Member of the Wake Forest University Alumni-In-Admissions Program, a leader on several Greater Charlotte YMCA boards, and volunteer in many Charlotte community charitable and civic events with Wray Ward. My wife, Tami, and I also recently joined Johns Island Presbyterian Church to continue our faith journey.
