The St. Louis, MO native is a recovering attorney whose baseball career began accidentally in 1992 when he sold an outfield wall billboard, program ad and four season tickets to the general manager of a moving company as they stood on the courthouse steps following a hearing.

From 1993-98, he served as the Saints’ Director of Operations and Assistant General Manager.

He spent two seasons as Director of Corporate Sales for the Tampa Bay Devil Rays before joining the Goldklang Group in January 2001. He was principally involved in the start-up of the Can-Am League’s Brocton Rox and the construction of a new baseball stadium and conference in the Boston suburb in 2002. A year later, he was on hand when the Rox won the league championship.

In August 2002, he returned to the Saints, assuming his current position as Executive Vice-President responsible for business development. In that role, he served as the behind-the-scenes force in landing events such as last summer’s Bob Dylan/Willie Nelson and Def Leppard/Bryan Adams concerts. He lives in Lino Lakes with his wife, Kathleen and their three children – Ruth, Tom and Jack.

Recently, he purchased a minority stock interest in the team.
