Hemlock Semiconductor Corporation is coming to Clarksville, Tennessee and will create 500 to 800 highly specialized jobs in the emerging solar cell technology industry. Austin Peay State University (where I earned my undergraduate degree) will be tasked with providing much of the training to upgrade the high tech skills of Middle Tennessee’s quality labor force. To read more about how one of our local universities will provide training in solar cell related technology, check out today’s edition of The Tennessean .

I work as an economic developer. At the moment, my day job is Executive Director of Hickman County Economic & Community Development Association, Inc. Working in a one person shop, I do community marketing, strategic planning, industrial recruitment, business retention & expansion, retail recruitment, tourism development and manage the non-profit corporation of the public/private partnership.
I am a member of International Economic Development Council, Southern Economic Development Council, Tennessee Economic Development Council and International Council of Shopping Centers.
I have held the designation of Certified Economic Developer (CEcD) from International Economic Development Council (IEDC) since 2008 and I have earned a Master of Business Administration from Tennessee Technological University.
