Work Experience Overview: Senior executive, CFO and principal, with defense electronics manufacturer; 22 years of

matters, property management, and Human Resources. As a principal owner, I have been instrumental in growing the
business from $7M to $97M during my tenure. In total I have 32 years employment experience in Lancaster County, so I
understand the local business, economic, and taxpayer climate. As a business owner, I bring the big picture perspective
and financial expertise to the table.
