Local Business Man Heading to Washington, D.C. [PHOTOS]
A local Owensboro business man leaves his business, family and friends for the job of a lifetime and a chance to serve our government!
Late yesterday J. Todd Inman announced on his Facebook page that he will be leaving Owensboro and heading to Washington, D.C. to take on an exciting opportunity!
“It's with great honor but also sadness that on Friday I accepted a Presidential appointment to work for the Honorable Elaine L. Chao as a Director in the cabinet of the United States Department of Transportation. While this means I must leave my family friends and business in Owensboro it is humbling to know I can be of service to our country. This decision did not come lightly and not without much prayer and consideration. I'm especially thankful for my wonderful parents who set me on a path at a young age to know you can achieve your dreams with hard work and determination. I look forward to the coming years of helping to support the secretary in her leadership of the Department of Transportation. Thank you to everyone who has helped and assisted me in getting to the point. For I am eternally grateful.”
We wish you the very best and know you'll do great things! Enjoy the journey.
