What do you see in your role as the greatest benefit
to your family?
Todd I think my biggest “role” is that I’m a steady voice, strong
backbone, and solid provider for my family. But I believe the
biggest benefit to my family is that they are my ministry in my
call as a Christian to love God and love others, and I strive for
them to be a reflection of that in me.
Elizabeth My biggest role is to make sure my family always feels
loved, supported, encouraged, and pointed towards Christ in our
home. But I firmly believe that the biggest benefit to my family in
that role is for the kids to see how much I love their dad and
prioritize our marriage. My prayer is they carry that into their
own families one day as spouses.
How long has Madison been your home?
Todd 23 years
Elizabeth 15 years
What are some of your favorite things about
Madison County?
Our very favorite thing about Madison is the people! People care
about where they live, they love their families, and their values are
wholesome.
How do you spend your summer breaks?
We don’t really have summer breaks. We chase kids to sporting
events and camps all summer while still both working. Although
most summers we do squeeze in a family vacation at some point!
What accomplishments make you proud during your
time living in Madison?
Todd The relationships that I’ve built in business, at church,
at the ball field/gym, and at the kids’ school have allowed me
to accomplish a huge goal of mine, which is to build good solid
friendships.
Elizabeth I coach volleyball at MRA, I’ve worked in the nursery
at our church, I’ve coached in the Madison Ridgeland Youth
recreational league, I worked for several years at the Madison
County Chamber of Commerce, and I have helped with things
like working backstage in the school play or being a room mom.
I would say I am most proud that I have been able to serve and
contribute to our Madison community in various ways!
What drives you to have the job that you have?
And what do you do for a living?
Todd I am co-owner of two Madison County businesses,
Crosstown Builders and Superior Foundation Services. What
drives me is that I get to create, build, repair and renew homes
and buildings in Madison County and along the way make
friends who become like family.
Elizabeth I work with the American Red Cross as the director
of service to armed forces and international services. Essentially,
it’s my team’s job to ensure our military men and women and
their families are taken care of. What drives me is giving back
to those who have given everything for me and my family to
have the freedoms we have.
