Work Experience:
6 years of GIS experience in both the private and public sectors. Since 2010, I've worked with Gwinnett County Government, worked as a contractor for Georgia Department of Transportation, brought GIS technology to the City of McDonough, and worked with Alabama Power to modernize its grid inventory. Last year, I made the transition away from a career based solely in GIS. In my current occupation as an Implementation Consultant with Tyler Technologies, I've worked with several municipalities across the country to implement software solutions that streamline their business processes while making information more accessible and transparent to the public.
Personal Background:
Born and raised in Conyers, GA, I moved to Covington with my wife in 2013. I have been active in this community ever since. I believe that as a community, we've got work to do in order to make Covington more attractive to young professionals. So far I'm enjoying my new role as Councilman, and look forward to seeing what this Council can accomplish with help from our citizens.
