About Me

I am excited to be running for the 23rd Legislative Representative! I’m an ambitious professional with leadership proficiency and extensive Executive Legislative Assistant experience. I believe that my professional and community service background, and industrialist drive make me an ideal candidate. My passion for community service in Kitsap runs deep. I care for people, know how to institute change, and create opportunities. My deep respect for community engagement inspires me to run to be your State House Representative, Pos. 2, 23rd Legislative District.

Family Man

I am first, a family man. I grew up in a small town in Ohio, but Kitsap County has been my home for 10 years, where I reside with my blended family–my loving and supportive wife, children who are engaged in our community, and although dogs are OK, we have three cats! (We are an equal opportunity household!) This is the county I love, and would be honored to serve as your State Representative.

A Passion for Community Service

Through my work and community service, I have sought to meet people where they live with respect for human dignity, and understanding of our differences, and empathy for those who are struggling. I walk alongside those in marginalized communities in a respectful manner, and will continue to break down barriers to success.

This experience includes serving on community organization boards, political activism, and military service. This has taught me leadership, team building, strategic planning and budgeting skills to create successful, workable solutions to best serve the 23rd Legislative District. I am committed to including those voices who have not been heard at the decision - making table.
