What music have you been listening to recently?
“I listen to a lot of what would be considered 70’s classics. I do like some instrumental, George Winston.”
What do you do in your spare time?
“I like to tinker with cars. Read, I love to read. I enjoy travel. We go to Mexico usually once a year for vacation.”
Which local event more captures your attention?
“I really, really like Christmas in the Village in Zionsville. It’s very nice. It’s very homey and kind of quaint. I love the downtown of Zionsville streetscape. It reminds me more of what my town looked like when I was growing up.”
What do you see as opportunities for your community?
“I think it’s certainly a desirable place to live. There are probably more opportunities for industry, to help kind of support the tax base. I would like to see Zionsville broaden out a little bit into spreading the tax base into more businesses and industry. I would like to see a little more opportunity for businesses there.”
