Having grown up in the Philadelphia area, I knew Inglis existed, but I never knew anything about its work. About two weeks after I joined McCausland Keen + Buckman full-time in September of 1987, Gordon Keen invited me to an event at Inglis and I was very fortunate to serve in several different capacities there for almost 37 years. My tenure on the board of directors at Inglis ended on June 30, 2023, and I was honored to be named a Director Emeritus at that time. Inglis afforded me an opportunity to work with some of the most capable and dedicated men and women I have ever known and my work with Inglis will always be one of the most rewarding experiences of my life.
I am one who believes the greatest wealth in life comes whenever one has an opportunity to pay it forward and working with so many bright, talented, and caring people has taught me too many things to count. I certainly have a much greater appreciation for the many good fortunes most of us enjoy every day of our lives and I try to never take that for granted. I grew up with parents who told us that ‘we had to give to get’ and I can say with certainty that I got far more from my work at Inglis than I ever gave. I am proud to have carried on the tradition of McCausland Keen + Buckman and Inglis.
