Go on a cruise with my wife, kill a trophy deer with my bow, and own a piece of property in the country. Who is someone you admire and why? This is a tough one; I admire a lot of people for a lot of different reasons so instead of taking the risk of leaving someone out, I will say that I admire people that choose to do the right thing–even when it’s not the most popular choice. Where do you see yourself ten years from now? I really don’t expect much will change in ten years. I hope to be still serving the people of Madison County.
