I have been associated with the Knights of Columbus over the past 11years actively promoting the virtues of Charity, Unity and Fraternity in support of Catholic Education at St. Charles Borromeo Catholic School in Port Charlotte, FL.  The council continuously promotes fund raising activities to support Catholic Education for 21st Century Disciples. My wife was the principal of the school at the time.  So, I became extensively involved in charitable fund-raising activities supporting the school, the church and the local community.  In addition, when Hurricane Ian made landfall in Southwest Florida in September of 2022, I actively participated in disaster relief efforts supporting the devastated communities of Arcadia, Cape Coral and Fort Myers, helping the people in those communities recover from the disaster.

In my interaction with the Knights, I was also very impressed with the fraternal brotherhood for each other and their commitment to Patriotism. These same virtues were instilled in me early on throughout my 10-year military career.

I became a Knight to spiritually give back to my Catholic faith in support of the church, school and community. 

Today, as a bilingual agent I continue the mission set forth by our founder, Blessed Michael McGivney, to render financial aid to our Brother Knights and their families by providing solutions to protect their families from financial ruin.
