I worked for many years as an Economist with the USEPA preparing cost/benefit and economic
impact analyses for air pollution regulations in the US. My job was to impartially analyze the cost
vs. benefits of any regulation and report to Congress for their consideraton.
What do you see as the responsibilities of this board, and what do you hope to
accomplish if appointed?
I think that it is vital to make sure that each ABC Store in Orange County is operating properly,
consistent with all County laws and rules, and that the very best employees are hired to provide
the very best service to our Orange County Residents, and to try to ensure that when they shop
for alcoholic beverages, that they return to our County ABC stores every time, having received
that very best service available to them.

Alcoholic Beverage Control Board
Background, education and experience relevant to this board:
I have worked in restaurants a good deal of my life, so I understand what issues they face from
a beverage standpoint. I am also a graduate student at UNCs School of Government and
therefore have knowledge both of the problem surrounding under-aged drinking and the
challenges of local government. My mom is currently serving on the Shelby ABC Board, and I
have been fortunate to accompany her to a few conferences and learn more about the unique
challenges a state mandated, but community staffed and run ABC faces.
Reasons for wanting to serve on this board:
I find all the challenges surrounding the ABC Board and serving the community is this way
fascinating. The state level commission is going through changes and I would value being a part
of that on a local level in my chosen community.

Alcoholic Beverage Control Board
Background, education and experience relevant to this board:
I am a North Carolina native, growing up in Columbus County, and have been a resident of
Orange County since 1993, my freshman year at UNC. While an undergrad here, I worked in
several bars and restaurants in Chapel Hill, both cooking and bartending, prior to working at

returned to UNC to attend law school, and I have been a practicing attorney in Chapel Hill since

owners. I have followed closely the lobbying efforts of local icons Scott Maitland and Gary

Conflict of Interest:
I have no business interest that could create a conflict of interest, and, while I don t believe that I

Alcoholic Beverage Control Board
Please list/explain your experience, either professionally and/or from other
boards/commissions that you have in the areas of budget, personnel, and management.
As a sous chef and kitchen manager years ago, I coordinated food costs, ordering and

the budget for the dental school s foundation office. As a self-employed attorney, I manage the
staff and daily function of a small law office in Chapel Hill.
In addition to the experience listed in the question above, please list the work/volunteer
experience/qualifications that would add to your expertise for this board.
In addition to serving on the Chapel Hill Public Library Board, I frequently volunteer in various
capacities at the UNC School of Law. My wife and I assist with a practical family law course
every spring semester, and I supervise student attorneys in pro bono clinics several times per
year. I have volunteered with local Habitat builds as well as workdays at the SECU House and
Ronald McDonald House.
What do you see as the responsibilities of this board, and what do you hope to
accomplish if appointed?
I would employ my knowledge and skillset to assist in setting policy and adopting rules that
conform with North Carolina ABC Laws and Commission Rules. I would also be excited to be a
part of the community grant program. While working in the foundation office at the UNC School
of Dentistry, I took great joy in coordinating their annual scholarship and fellowship process, and
I would be delighted to work with fellow board members to serve in this similar capacity.
