I am a fierce advocate for education. As Founder/CEO of Skyepack, a local curriculum development and educational technology firm serving over 200 schools and colleges, I have championed access, affordability, and equity in education. I will bring that same passion to the West Lafayette School Board.

I have lived in West Lafayette for 20 years. I graduated from Purdue with BS & MS degrees in Aerospace Engineering, and an MBA. I have also had the pleasure of teaching classes in Purdue's Entrepreneurship & Innovation Program.
​
Kristin and I met as students at Purdue, and held our wedding at the Purdue Union. Kristin graduated from Purdue with a degree in Movement & Sport Science, and from the University of Indianapolis School of Occupational Therapy. She has worked as an Occupational Therapist in various local clinics and long-term care facilities. Kristin and I have two daughters, Aubrey in 5th grade, and Alison in 3rd grade. You can find us walking on Purdue's campus or riding bikes and hiking at Prophetstown State Park.
