I am an attorney and have been in general practice since 1979, and I am a member of the Virginia State Bar. I have served on many local and state bar boards and committees including the Virginia State Bar Council, Virginia State Bar Standing Committee on Legal Ethics, and as Past Chairman of the Virginia State Bar Conference of Local Bar Associations Fraternally, I serve on the Jurisprudence Committees of both the Grand Lodge of Virginia A.F.& A. M. and the Grand Commandery of Knights Templar of Virginia. I also serve on the Grievances and Appeals Committee of Shriners International. Another one of my interests and passions is serving on the Board of International Cooperating Ministries (ICM), a charitable organization engaged in the construction of churches worldwide, as well as the production of multi-language Biblical resources.

Jane Ellis, St. Thomas, Christiansburg After being welcomed at St. Thomas, Christiansburg several years ago, I enjoy being a lector, singing with the choir, and serving on the Vestry. It would be an honor to also serve Christ with the people of the greater Diocese. Previously, I was on a search committee and appointed Director of our Episcopal Community Food Bank. I believe my professional experience as a Captain in the USAF and 16 years as a social worker provided many years of patiently listening to others while carefully dealing with sensitive situations. I offer a commitment to serve diligently on the Disciplinary Board.

Charles Phillips, St. Paul, Salem I have been a member of St. Paul's for 56 years. My experience as a practicing attorney for 58 years, ten of those as Commonwealth's Attorney for the City of Salem, has given me the experience of being capable of recognizing the evidence presented and to judge the individual fairly. I was awarded the Lewis F. Powell, Jr. Pro Bono Attorney for the year 2021. I have served on the VA State Bar Ethics Committee, and I have served as a Judge Pro Tem, hearing and judging several cases. I am a member of the vestry and the finance committee. I am a former junior warden and a former member of the Endowment Board. I would be pleased to serve on the Disciplinary Board of our Diocese.
