Upon receiving a Batchelor’s degree in Business from Northern Kentucky University, I have accumulated 40+ years of successful business experience in Manufacturing and Quality Management while producing highly-engineered Aerospace, Truck and other Heavy Equipment products. It has been a real privilege to work for Cotton County since November of 2020 initially as Custodian, American Rescue Plan (ARPA) Grant Administrator, and presently as County Clerk since June of 2022.

A pet parrot that goes by the name, Samba, got stranded for three days high in a tree in Lewisville, Texas. Samba survived attacks by predatory hawks before the bird’s owner, Giulio Ferrari, was able to get the bird he loves down from a tree. As he put it, 'It's like my soul has reentered my body.
