- Canal Winchester is growing - and we need to guide that growth with intention. I support development that preserves our small-town feel, protects green space and ensures our infrastructure and schools aren’t overwhelmed. That means thoughtful zoning, smart infrastructure investments and long-term planning that puts our community first.
- As a veteran and father, I know the value of safe neighborhoods. I’ll advocate for fully supported police, fire and emergency services - and for community programs that build trust, reduce crime and keeps our families safe.
- I want Canal Winchester to be a place where businesses want to grow. I’ll work to attract new businesses, support local entrepreneurs and ensure we create good-paying jobs right here in our city - so more families can live and work in our community.
