Expand all | Collapse all

I am a father of three (29, 9, 7), a husband to my bride (18 years), a small business advocate, and former educator. I currently serve the business community as an HR Consultant, helping small to mid-size businesses in all of their HR needs, operations, culture, and strategies. As a former school administrator and board president in the charter school systems, I know first-hand the needs of public, charter, private, and home school options. As a dad of a Marine, I also understand first-hand the needs of veterans, families of the deployed, and our active military service members and their families. My hands-on knowledge in these areas are key to this election and what I can bring to the table in District 50.
  • Education. School choice is the Parent's choice. As an educator, I know kids can vary in learning styles. Put the kids learning needs first and allow parents to make that choice.
  • Caswell is open for Business. Caswell County wants and desires a business advocate in Raleigh. One of the poorest counties in NC, the residents are nervous that in 10 years, their communities will be a ghost-town.
  • Adoption. Make adoption more accessible to regular families that have the passion, desire, and love to take on a local child in the current foster care system.
School choice is what parent's like me are mostly passionate about and ensuring Caswell and Orange County have the support they need to continue to grow strategically while maintaining it's small and friendly community feel.
I recall seeing the Challenger explode on the TV and then running outside to see it from my backyard.
I worked at the Flea Market for a few summers. I would sell household items. I also worked at a Tuxedo shop afterschool. I had that job for almost 5 years.
