David H. Uible, (born December 14, 1960) is a rancher, investor, and a county commissioner in Clermont County, Ohio. He was appointed to the Board of Clermont County Commissioners in March 2012 and subsequently elected on November 2, 2012 to fill an unexpired two year term.

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).[5][6][3] 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 1997, he established Uible Management Group. Since its founding, this investment company has been the vehicle to buy, attempt to improve, and sell other businesses in the US.[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.[8][1]

He has been the 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.[9][8][3][10]

In May 2014 Uible was elected to be the Executive Committee and Party Chairman of the Clermont County Republican Party.[11]


Board of Clermont County Commissioners

After the seat held by former Commissioner Archie Wilson was vacated due to his sudden resignation, 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.[12][13] Uible went on to win the general election in November 2012 defeating his Democratic opponent, Len Harding, 67.54% to 32.46.[14] 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.[15]

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.[16] Together they have one child, Emma. The Uible family lives on the 175-acre Vista Grand Ranch of New Richmond, Ohio where they raise American Buffalo for their USDA meat label.[17]
