I am currently a Trustee with the Village of Homer Glen where I serve as the Chair of the Economic Development Committee as well as a board member of the Administration and Finance Committee. I am a graduate of Lockport Township High School and have earned an Bachelor’s Degree in Accounting with a Masters in Taxation from Northern Illinois University. Husband and father of 4 children. I value the sense of community and the quality of life Homer Glen and more broadly Will County have to offer. As a long time 32 year resident of Homer Glen and a local business owner I have forged deep ties in the community with a firm understanding of the challenges that present themselves to voters on a local and county level.
I have an extensive background in real estate and construction and will bring vast real world experience as well as a relentless work ethic to the county board when elected.- I am a strong advocate for property rights and protection for property tax payers from government overreach.
- I am a strong fiscal conservative and I believe every dollar spent by government must be accounted for and done as efficiently as possible.
- Tax relief for residents. I believe in living within our current budget and no increase in levies and looking for additional savings by streamlining operations and becoming less wasteful and more efficient.
