He manages grants, contracts, and revenue distribution, and functions as one of the main trainers and mentors to the Grants and Finance Specialists of the Cities program.

Luke loves music and has been playing guitar for two decades. He is an avid home bartender and enjoys cooking, running, and visiting national parks and breweries (bonus points to areas of the country that feature plenty of both).
He and his wife live in Maryland with their beloved—and spoiled—cat, Furson.
