MEET BRYAN

for Florida House District 58

I was raised in the Midwest by parents who worked hard in the auto industry for many years. My parents instilled in me the importance of family, hard work, and service to your neighbors and the community.

I had a successful career with a global food company. I led teams in our global warehouse and transportation systems. I delivered continuous cost savings for the company’s bottom line, while maintaining service excellence to customers, suppliers, and our employees.

My wife, Kathleen (who served four years as a Clearwater City Councilmember) and I have been blessed with three amazing children. During their childhood, I was able to volunteer to coach hockey, soccer, and football teams. As a parent, I know that this was both a privilege- and a joy.

When Kathleen and I moved to Clearwater we immediately became involved in the community. I have helped numerous families, non-profits, churches, and municipalities lower their energy bills. As Founder and President of the Pinellas Green Foundation, I'm proud of the large savings and corresponding reduction in pollution.

This focus on our community has complemented the leadership and board positions I've held with:

Suncoast Sierra Group
Pinellas Parks and Conservation Advisory Board
Clearwater Housing Alliance
The North Pinellas League of Women Voters

Helping our neighbors lower their living costs, and improve the health and well being of families, is a consistent priority of mine.

Along with talking about how to achieve energy savings, I enjoy being in the outdoors with friends and family - including fishing, biking, running, and hiking.
