Recertification & Upcoming Officer in American Society of Appraisers. I am honored to have been mentored by David Gerlach. No words can show my gratitude for his mentoring. He served the American Society of Appraisers and Wisconsin Auctioneers Association. He has shown me the importance of our careers as an auctioneer, like helping others under distressed times, as well as good times. He also believed in comradery and how important it is to give back. I have conducted many appraisals for attorneys, bankers, etc. throughout the past 20 years. I enjoy participating in fundraisers such as: Heroes Expedition for Veteran’s, Diabetes Foundation, Breast Cancer, Wildlife Center and others. I enjoy the process of helping others through their journey’s with the appraisal and auction process and still maintain relationships in past engagements. I believe in God first, I am blessed to have a great family that I am very proud of. In my past time I enjoy family and friends, biking, gardening, and many other activities. I would like to contribute my time, thoughts and service, and would be honored if Wisconsin Auctioneer Association would consider me as a candidate. Thank you.
