Governor's Message |
I am proud to be serving as the NTX District Governor this year. I am a native Texan, originally from South Texas but lived most of my life in the Gulf Coast region where I started my Optimist journey 30 years ago. My wife, Georgia, and I moved to North Texas 8 years ago and I immediately became involved with local Optimists. I have served in many leadership positions at the club and district level but my passion is JOI club building. I am happy to call North Texas home and love the NTX District.
I choose Optimism!
