Senior Voice -

Born in the heart of Anchorage and raised amidst the breathtaking landscapes of Willow, I developed a connection with the great outdoors from a young age. Fishing, hiking, four-wheeling, and snowmobiling became not just hobbies, but cherished parts of my identity.

Professionally, I wear multiple hats. A graduate of the Institute for Integrative Nutrition, I hold a certificate degree as a holistic health coach and am board-certified through the American Association of Drugless Practitioners. My passion for holistic wellness led me to establish and operate a medical weight loss clinic, with a special focus on Metabolic Syndrome. With offices in Anchorage and Fairbanks, we strive to empower individuals on their journey to optimal health.

In addition to my professional endeavors, I am a devoted husband and proud father of two beautiful children. My commitment to family fuels my dedication to improving the lives of others, especially our cherished seniors.

Since 2019, I've had the privilege of serving on the board of OPAG, working tirelessly alongside our dedicated team to advocate for and support Alaska's senior community. It has been an honor to intertwine my professional expertise with our organization's mission, assisting countless seniors in their pursuit of healthier lifestyles.

And let's not forget the other incredible members of our board, each bringing their unique talents and perspectives to the table. It's our collective passion and drive that propels OPAG forward.

Behind the scenes, our publication owes much of its success to the remarkable dedication to our award-winning editor, David Washburn. His keen eye for detail and commitment to excellence ensures that each issue of Senior Voice reflects the heart and soul of our senior community.

Let's continue to uplift, empower and celebrate the vibrant spirit of our older Alaskans.
