I am unable to drive. <br /> My expertise in transportation in Orange County and Chapel Hill are relevant to senior <br /> citizens.Through my work on the OC and Chapel Hill volunteer boards I have gotten to know <br /> many County and Town staff. My experience as Chairman in leading an important advisory <br /> board in Chapel Hill. Finally, I have a Ph.D. In toxicology which enables me to advise the County <br /> on toxic substances used in the environment that senior citizens can be exposed to. My MBA <br /> gives me insight of the new businesses that are being set up to address senior needs. <br /> Reasons for wanting to serve on this board: <br /> I am a very good example of the type of challenges many senior face in life in Orange County. I <br /> want to assist my community to realize that there can be a good life after a life-changing event <br /> such as a stroke. <br /> Conflict of Interest: <br /> Supplemental Questions: <br />
