Job title: Deputy director, Albemarle County Parks and Recreation. Assists the director and takes his role in his absence. Albemarle County Parks and Recreation is responsible for parks, playing fields, and other recreational areas throughout the county.
Best of times: Seeing projects go from paper to reality.
Worst of times: Keeping up with county growth. “With the size of the programs that we currently have we don’t have enough—lack of field space. But, again, we make it do what it do.”
Strangest moment on the job: “We currently have one project now that we’ve been working on for four years, and just at the point we think we’re ready for closure, then something else pops up.”
If he were a superhero, he’d be: Indiana Jones. “He’s a more adventurous type, just like me.”
