Nominee study-aid caution

This Nominees reader is an AI-assisted, file-extracted study aid. It is not the official ballot, not an official LCMS nominee resource, and not a voting recommendation. Extraction tools can miss names, misplace candidates, omit cross-listed offices, mismatch photos, or format details incorrectly. Always verify every nominee name, office, region, board, commission, page number, and ballot detail against the official LCMS nominee publication and final convention ballot before making voting judgments.

I have always had an interest in higher education. I retired from 40 years on the IT staff in an academic department at the University of Washington. As a regent, I will look forward to supporting educational excellence at Concordia University Irvine for all students while strengthening its Lutheran distinctiveness and support of future church workers for the Synod.
