David H. Uible, (born December 14, 1960) is a rancher, investor, and Republican Party Chairman in Clermont County, Ohio. He was appointed to the Board of Clermont County Commissioners in March 2012, subsequently elected in November 2012 to fill an unexpired two-year term, and elected for a full-term in November 2014.
Early life and Education
Uible was born and raised in Cincinnati, Ohio, the youngest of nine children of Richard and Verna Uible.[1] After graduating from Sycamore High School he went on to Purdue University in West Lafayette, Indiana where he graduated in 1983 with a B.S. in Mechanical Engineering.[2][3] Uible also did graduate work at Xavier University and graduated from the Executive Management Program at the University of Cincinnati.[4]
Career
Uible's first position in the international division of a computer software company led to starting his first company, Rosegate Technology Group, in 1989 to sell reconditioned computer equipment to Swiss banks.[3] In 1993, Uible privatized the medical publishing division of the Russian Ministry of Health (former USSR).[3][5][6] This initiative opened advertising opportunities for western pharmaceuticals, and sales grew from $0 to $6 million before the company was re-nationalized by the Russian government in May 1996.[7]
In 1995, Uible co-founded the Cincinnati Chapter of Young Entrepreneurs Organization (now known as Entrepreneurs' Organization).[8] He also served as the Chapter’s President.[8]
In 1999, Uible started Uible Management Group to acquire more distressed companies after successfully turning-around the Russian medical publishing business and Structured Network Solutions in 1997. He has bought and turned around several more businesses, playing an active role in each. He considers his strengths to be identifying opportunities, financial structuring, marketing, and leadership.[3]
Uible has been a member of the Clermont County Planning Commission, the Northern Kentucky University School of Entrepreneurship, the Southern Ohio Agricultural Community Development Fund, the University Club of Cincinnati, and the Cincinnati Youth Collaborative.[1][8]
Uible has been a Director of the New Richmond National Bank, Treasurer of the Clermont County Republican Central and Executive Committees, and Advisory Judge of Purdue University Center of Entrepreneurship.[3][8][9][10]
Since 2012 Uible has served as one of three Board Member on the Investment Advisory Committee for Clermont County, which manages about $100,000,000 in municipal and corporate bonds and U.S. Treasury investments.[11]
In May 2014 Uible was elected to be Party Chairman of the Clermont County Republican Party.[12]
Uible serves on multiple other county boards including: Convention and Visitors Bureau, County Investment Corporation (CIC), Opiate Task Force, and the County Planning Commission.[13][14]
Board of Clermont County Commissioners
After a county commissioner seat was vacated in March 2012, Uible was appointed to the Board of Clermont County Commissioners with 67% of the Clermont County Republican Central Committee vote on March 14, 2012 from a field of ten candidates seeking the appointment.[15][16] Uible went on to win the general election in November 2012 defeating his Democratic opponent, Len Harding, 67.54% to 32.46.[17] With endorsements from Senator Portman, Governor Kasich, and Representative Wenstrup, Uible was reelected for a second term in November 2014 after winning 74.34% of the vote over his Democratic opponent Richard Perry.[18]
Personal life
In 1985, Uible married Cindy Cassell, a college classmate from Purdue University. As a PhD. nutritionist, Cindy works for her own nutrition consulting practice, Nutrition Access LLC.[19] Together they have one child, Emma. The Uible family lives on the 171-acre Vista Grand Ranch of New Richmond, Ohio where they raise American Buffalo for their USDA meat label.[20]
