City Manager
Mission
The City Manager is the Chief Administrative Officer of the City and is responsible to the Board of Commissioners for the administration of all City affairs. The departments of the City are responsible to the City Manager. All inquires, including complaints concerning the day-to-day operation of the City should be directed to the City Manager's Office.
As a North Carolina native, I have proudly called Brunswick County home for the past eight years. I earned my undergraduate degree from North Carolina Wesleyan College and later completed Master of Public Administration at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill's School of Government.
Over the past four years, I served as the Planning Director and Development Services Director for the Town of Oak Island. My career also includes roles as Senior Planner for the Town of Leland, Planner and Interim Planning Director for Johnston County and sworn Sheriff's Deputy in Wayne County where I worked alongside the Animal Services Department.
Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my family and two dogs, as well as pursuing my interests in music, guitar and cooking.
I am truly excited to serve as the new City Manager of Boiling Spring Lakes. I look forward to collaborating with the community, city staff and local leaders to help shape a bright future for the City.
