Served as the only City Manager in U.S. history to transform an unincorporated rural area (Maricopa) into the nation’s fastest-growing city in under 3 years. Built the largest utility-scale solar hub in the U.S. while Town Manager of Gila Bend, achieving national recognition from the U.S. Department of Energy.
