About me:

I was born and raised in East Toledo as were both my mother and father. My three brothers and I grew up in Weiler Homes, and all three of my brothers were my role models. We all grew up playing sports and later we went on to coach a variety of sports in the East Toledo area.

Now I am married to my wife Jennifer and we have two children. Our son John Jr. graduated from Northwood in 2013 and Jessica is a graduate of St. Ursula Academy in 2020. Jessica is currently working towards her Bachelor’s degree in Digital Arts at Bowling Green State University.

Favorite subject in school:

American History

Hobbies/Activities:

Spending time with my family at home and on vacations, teaching baseball to kids of all ages

What I hope to do with this foundation:

My goal is for our community’s children to have great memories growing up in East Toledo like I did, without any stress or fears. I want to let them know they can achieve anything with hard work and to provide teachers with the resources they need to educate their students.
