“People want RESULTS not TALK”

Before becoming a social worker, John was an industrial electrician. He worked everywhere. Including but not limited to power plants, factories and coal mines throughout the mid-south. This has helped him form a strong relationship to the issues of the “working man or woman.”

John is married and between him and his lovely wife they have four children and 13 grandchildren.
