I am concerned with the direction in which our country is headed. The lack of sound fiscal policy and a disregard of almost every basic tenet of sound financial management is placing a burden on this country whereby future generations will suffer from our lack of stewardship. This concern is the main force driving my campaign.

My wife Becky, our two daughters and I live in Anderson County Tennessee. I am a 1981 graduate of Miami University, Oxford, Ohio and a small business owner. My company, DeVol Millwork, services the residential and commercial construction industry here in East Tennessee.
