"I come from a proud family that has been involved in public service for as long as I can remember. I want to work for you. We need to create a more rich culture that brings together all members of our club and reconnect everyone with our mission and vision. When you know your "why", you can overcome any "how". With nearly a decade of 20-30 Club experience, I know what it takes to find solutions, navigate complicated situations, and get things done."
LIST OF ISSUES
CULTURE
Phoenix 20-30 Club is the oldest philanthropic organization in the valley, founded in 1932 by Barry Goldwater. It is an honor and a privilege to carry that torch today and requires a diligent effort and focus to ensure that our club culture continues to thrive and carry on traditions from generations before us. The culture of our club will be what determines our ongoing success and quality membership. Culture is built when our club comes together to help the community. When the Phoenix 20-30 Club see’s one another as “brothers”, our club and community thrive. Culture doesn’t happen by accident. Culture comes from the inside.
MISSION
Our organization is made up of professional young men throughout the Phoenix metropolitan area who are leaders in their perspective industry. Our goals are simple - improve the quality of life of the children in our local community through fundraising and community events, develop personal leadership skills, and empower youth to achieve their full potential. In the world today, it takes more than just fundraising to strengthen a community - it takes leadership.
VISION
There is a lot to learn and understand between Phoenix 20-30 Club, Children in Need Foundation and Aspiring Youth Academy. While it is important to learn and understand where we have come from since 1932, it is equally as important and where we are going. Not only do we need a clear vision of where we are going, but we need to embody “why”.

TECHNOLOGY
“It’s the way we have always done it” is no longer good enough for “why we do what we do”. It is time that we move to the 21st century with our technology and infrastructure. I have always lived by “If you don’t have a process, you have a problem” and this exists in life, business and non-profits. It is time that we improve upon our technology for members to be able to have 1 place they can login and learn about other members, see the event calendar, a social calendar, fundraising results, bylaws and much more. If we can harness technology and implement systems and processes with information from past events and members before us – we can take the club to the next level. We don’t need to reinvent the wheel each and every year. The time for change is now.
CLUBHOUSE
I have shared a vision with many Active and Past Active members of having a Phoenix 20-30 Clubhouse that can host club dinners, events, meetings, parties and be a place for us to grow and thrive. With over 90 years of rich tradition and countless club artifacts, I dream to pave the way for a "clubhouse" that will be used for decades to come that our future generations will be able to enjoy our rich club history.
CLUB INTEGRATION
The Phoenix 20-30 Club is powered by its 65 volunteer members. This club is a democracy not a dictatorship, and it is time to gain more involvement from its entire membership. It is time to empower all parties to dream big and become more involved with bringing fresh new ideas and best-practices to the table to ensure the clubs ongoing success for years to come.
I will implement club survey's to ensure we are always improving and also create a club advisory board to learn from our peers in the community in addition to more transparency and integration with out sister organizations, CINF and AYA.
