HOA Board

I am a graduate of CNS a​nd Le Moyne College. BS Accounting & Music Theory. I moved to Orange Commons in July of 2015 with my wife Brittany, having previously lived in another community in Clay. We welcomed our amazing daughter, Harriet, in April of 2022.

I have 17 years of experience in operations and project management work. For over 11 years I have also owned a local AV/IT integration services company. My primary focus in recent years has been on technology integration and software development projects. Historical roles have also given me a strong foundation of experience in construction, facilities, code compliance, legal principles, negotiation and many other disciplines relevant to ensuring the community’s HOA operates smoothly and efficiently.

I have spent a substantial amount of time and personal resources over the last 7.5 years towards ensuring my family and all our neighbors in Orange Commons enjoy living in the development with the fewest issues from the town/developer/HOA as possible. I am hoping to continue these efforts by serving on the HOA Board.

After graduating with a dual degree in Communications and Business Administration/Management, I started my career as a Property and Casualty Auto Adjuster investigating automobile accidents. This provided me with experience in writing vehicle repair estimates, negotiating with body shops, insured’s, and third parties, handling injury claims and settlements. My skills also include analysis of medical records, injury causation, legal principals, working and negotiating with plaintiff and defense attorneys. From this, I moved on to Automobile leadership responsible for managing a claim operation which included supervision of multiple employees, claims, bodily injury litigation, and the building/maintenance. After spending time in Auto leadership, moved on to Homeowners and Commercial Claims leadership. My expertise in analyzing and interpreting policy language and coverage application of several different personal lines and commercial policies will translate well to the HOA position. I’m routinely involved with customers, contractors, public adjusters, code enforcement, and attorneys to resolve complex issues. I’ve been deployed to multiple states to set up and manage catastrophe operations for wildfires, hurricanes, wind, and  hail.

Along with my work experiences I’ve held leadership positions and sat on boards in many local organizations: I’ve been a Special Arbitrator for the American Arbitration Association, Committee Chair on the Fayetteville-Manlius Pop Warner board, Committee Chair for Boy Scouts of America Troop 56, Vice President of Burnt Hills Ballston Lake High School Lacrosse Booster Club, and Committee Chair for Q.U.I.L.T.S Schenectady, responsible for the organization and operation of their bi-annual quilt show at Proctor’s Theater.

I feel my background and skills demonstrate I would be an asset and a quality board member as we move forward taking over the Orange Commons HOA. If elected I will represent each and every homeowner with respect and fairness to maintain the wonderful community we call home.

36 years old, BS degree in business with a focus on marketing.
The best interest of the neighborhood is top of mind for me. I have two children and plan to live here forever.

I am currently a corporate recruiter for Panera Bread and have been running large restaurant chains for over 15 years. Leading a team is something I excel at through listening skills and problem solving techniques. I am fair and reliable and I look forward to being able to contribute to the neighborhood.
