As a seasoned restaurantuer and a proud new small business owner in Loudoun County, I believe that I can help to add insight into the development of the region. My family moved to Loudoun County in 1979 and I attended elementary, middle and high school in the county. I have seen the many changes and development over the years, and when I decided to go into business for myself, I could not think of a better place to start. My parents, brother and his family, sister and her family, and my wife and two children call Loudoun County home and will for the rest of our lives. I am very excited to see Loudoun County prosper and I look forward to being considered for this position as I look to grow within the local government.
