Expand all | Collapse all

I am an Ohio native. I was born in Washington Court House, Ohio and grew up in Athens, Ohio and currently live in Albany, Ohio. My family on my mother's side were farmers and on my father's side were in construction. I graduated from Ohio University in 1994 with a BS in Mechanical Engineering, in 2025 with a Master's in Project management, and am currently finishing up my BS in Marine, Freshwater and Environmental Biology.

I worked in manufacturing for a supplier to American Honda for 6 years, ran a small business (restaurant) for 12 years, was a manager at Lowes, a service manger and then general manager at a lawn and agricultural equipment dealership, and now work at Ohio University as a learning lab coordinator in the Engineering Technology and Management department of the Russ College of Engineering.

I feel my wide variety of experiences and education gives me a unique skillset that will allow me to best serve the constituents of Ohio's second congressional district.

My mission is to bring communities together, listen to the voices of the working class, and find solutions to the issues that most affect the everyday lives of my constituents.
  • Education is, to me the cornerstone to resolving all the other problems we face. We need to start by focusing on and supporting education as our number one priority in this country, directing a larger percentage of our federal budget towards education than ever before . We need newer schools, not just in urban but in rural areas, we need newer technology, and we need higher salaries for our teachers.
  • The divide between the wealth in the top one percent of our country and the rest of the country is continually increasing. No society or economy can sustain this kind of gap. Eventually, the disparity between the haves and have nots will reach a breaking point.
  • Healthcare is high on my list of priorities. We must work towards a solution to not just fix but replace the broken system we have. Universal health care should not seem like a dream or some far fetched idea. It is only a matter of time and having the proper leadership before we make it a reality. We should not have to insure our bodies as if they were a an automobile. Healthcare should be a right, not a gamble.
I am especially passionate about sustainability as it applies to every aspect of our daily lives, not just the environment. Through education and legislation I believe we can reduce our cost of living, teach our nation, especially our young people, how to minimize our impact on the environment, and make our country less dependent on fossil fuels. All of these will contribute to higher standards of living and a more productive America.
