About Ty


My family moved to Elk Ridge in August of 1994. My wife Cindi and I are the parents of two wonderful daughters, Jaimie (deceased) and Meagan and we have 10 grandchildren who mean everything to us.

I'm currently employed at FamilySearch as a Cloud Architect responsible for compute resources, network design, and security controls. Prior to working at FamilySearch I worked at Novell from 1993 to 2010 in various software engineering roles. I graduated from Weber State College in 1984 with my BS degree in Electronic Engineering Technology.

I love the outdoors and we spend as much time fishing and camping as we can. I suppose this is one reason I like Elk Ridge so much. I absolutely believe we live at the foot of the most beautiful mountains of the entire Wasatch Front.

I've spent significant time serving in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints for which I'm eternally grateful.

I now look forward to serving the residents of Elk Ridge as a member of the City Council.
