Expand all | Collapse all

I am a lifelong resident of the Olympic Peninsula, born and raised in Neah Bay. I have lived this rural lifestyle, seeing firsthand the barriers we face on a daily basis.

I served in the Marine Corps, deploying to the first Gulf War and Operation Restore Hope in Somalia. I am a lifetime member of the DAV and VFW. I have been married 27 years, raising 4 kids, and numerous foster kids as a placement. We are proud grandparents to 4 grandkids. I spent 12 years as an Elected Official, numerous years as the Chairman of the Makah. Our work was centered around education, healthcare, broadband, public safety, environmental issues, housing/homelessness. I also had oversight of 3 Organizations with 100-300 employees and budgets in excess of $35 million.

I coached youth sports for over 12 years, ending my coaching career at the varsity level
  • As a lifelong resident in a rural area, we see firsthand the lack of services that many of our communities are lacking. My passion as an Elected Official has been advocating and lobbying for access to quality healthcare. We need to ensure that our local healthcare facilities remain whole, and continue to offer services at the highest level of quality care. For many, these facilities are our lifelines.
  • We need to get people healthy. We have far too many residents struggling with addiction, homelessness, and a lack of access to the wraparound services that are desperately needed. We need to expand on our mental health services, behavioral health services, treatment facilities, peer support counselors/recovery cafes.. we need to actively pursue homeless shelters, recovery homes, transitional housing while offering the various wraparound services to not only get people healthy, but to keep people healthy.
  • Public Safety. At times, it seems that there is an expectation that our Police Officers are mental health counselors, counselors, teachers and coaches.

    We need to allow our Public Safety to access the resources that they need in order to operate at the highest level. We have far too many Law Enforcement Organizations operating understaffed and underdunded.

    They are a key component to the major issues that our communities are facing today. In order to operate within the highest professional standards, we need to allocate the resources that are desperately needed.
The areas I am passionate about are intertwined.; public health, the fentanyl epidemic, education and housing. The climate crisis is also annissue that I am passionate about as we are on the front lines on the Coast. We see the changes year after year.
I believe that the core responsibilities are taking care of the people. We have too many people that are struggling.
A single person can rarely get things accomplished on their own. Everyone has to work together to accomplish goals that will benefit our people.
Our greatest challenges today will be Supreme Court decisions. We have already witnessed negative impacts Nationally, like a woman’s Right to choose.
Most definitely! Especially in 2024-2025,, as we will have over 2 dozen newly elected officials. 2 years in the House is going to go by fast, and we can’t afford to elect officials who have absolutely no experience as an Elected Official. Leadership matters. Experience matters.
Definitely! We need to elect people who can work both sides of the aisle on common priorities that need to be addressed. We can’t afford to keep electing people who are part of an establishment, who will come in and tow the line. That has been the problem with what we see in todays politics. We need to elect people who want to make positive changes for our residents.
Not neccessarily. I want to come in and work with others, to accomplish benchmarks that are beneficial to our people.
That hasn’t crossed my mind. I want to make a difference for our communities in the 24th LD
In certain instances, I believe that the Legislature should be a part of emergency powers.
