I have served on many non-profit boards in my career; currently Treasurer of Pine Castle and Treasurer of Oceanside Rotary. I am
a member of the UNF Student Affairs committee and was recently appointed by Mayor Curry to the Library Board of Trustees.
In my professional life I am an economist functioning mainly as an investment consultant to 42 clients, with about $2 billion
under advisement. I currently consult to many public pension and retirement plans.
While I do not advertise this fact, I am also a Florida certified attorney. During my limited free time I still practice some law
on a stricly pro bono basis.
It may sound presumptuous, but I believe I would be a perfect fit on either or both of your Pension Boards. My experience
in the world of economics, public accounting, finance and law would lend itself nicely to such service. That being said, my
main goal would be to add value to the Board, with the ultimate goal of keeping the promises we have made to so many
public servants who have dedicated their lives to making ours better.
With regards to any conflicts of interests, I have none. Furthermore, my firm is closed to new business, so there would be no
intent on my part to ever financially gain from such a position. I appreciate your consideration.

“CONFLICT OF INTEREST” NOTICE:
“Part III of Chapter 112, Fla.Stat., is the Code of Ethics for Public Officers and Employees. This Code defines “conflict” or
“conflict of interest” to mean a situation in which regard for a private interest tends to lead to disregard of a public duty or
interest. Fla.Stat. §112.312(8). The intent of this Code, in part, is that public office not be used for private gain. Fla.Stat.
§112.311(1). A “conflict” or “conflict of interest” is something that would result in a special private gain to an individual,
usually a special financial benefit.
An appointed member of a committee of the City of Atlantic Beach will most likely be subject to the provisions of the
State Code of Ethics. Disclosure of any “conflict” or “conflict of interest” should be made as soon as possible in the
appointment process. While it may be difficult to anticipate conflicts or conflicts of interest that may arise during future
committee meetings, which should be disclosed immediately by any committee member, those known or anticipated initially,
including those which others might perceive as a conflict or conflict of interest, should be disclosed during the appointment
process.”
