I have lived in the City of Tonawanda most of my life. I am a 1975 graduate of Tonawanda High School and then continued my education for 4 years studying business at the University at Buffalo. I’ve been married to my wife Kate for 40 years and I have 2 children & 4 grandchildren.
I have spent the past 30 years owning two businesses, White's Turf Crew and WTC Training. A Fertilizer company working with 90% commercial contracts and an educational company that teaches companies, municipalities, and school systems on Safety, Community Right to Know, and Employee Right to Know, along with teaching individuals how to obtain their Department of Environmental Conservation license to apply pest control products.
I have served this community, in which I love, for over 25 years by helping people in need of a special hand, working with our youths, senior citizens, and many community organizations to build a better place for them to live.
My forte is getting people together to achieve goals and build a solid communication network to get things done, and I look forward to doing this as your Mayor of the City of Tonawanda.
I believe the Mayor’s Office should be run with integrity, honesty, and a full-time commitment of which I will bring to this position.
Oh and I sing too.. I play guitar in a local eagle’s tribute band.
