I am running for our common good. I now serve as the Executive Director for both the Missouri Center for Employee Ownership and the soon-to-be Kansas Center for Employee Ownership, nonprofit organizations raising awareness for employee ownership as an economic development and exit planning strategy for retiring business owners. Previously, I served the people of Johnson County. After working in the County Manager’s Office, I transitioned to lead community relations for Johnson County Mental Health Center where I was responsible for communications during the pandemic and helped launched the National Co-Responder Conference
  • Our Schools - Great schools are the best way to attract great businesses and employees to a community, especially when technology allows people to work from anywhere. We all want the children in our lives to receive a good education, to be safe, and to have consistent role models. This is why we need to support policies that keep USD 231 from losing good staff members, provide the best learning environment for our children, and fully fund special education.
  • Our Childcare - We know how hard it is to find affordable and safe childcare. Some estimates suggest there are twice as many kids as available placements in Kansas. We need the state to lead the way on private/public partnerships and collaboration to reshape the childcare industry to keep children safe and parents in the workforce.
  • Our Jobs - We need stable jobs with wages that can keep up with inflation and the housing market in our community. This means we need policies that inspire entrepreneurship, support small businesses, and make way for employee ownership as an exit planning strategy for retiring business owners.
Public Education. As a father of children in Gardner schools, I know how critical it is that our schools get the support they need from our representatives in Topeka. From teacher salaries to funding special education, our schools have been abandoned by our state government. I’m going to work to fix that.
