I’m a lifelong Georgian, a husband, and a father of three. Professionally, I serve as a leader of innovation at a technology company, where I focus on solving problems, bringing people together, and helping organizations navigate complex challenges. My educational background in economics and public policy, along with an MBA focused on innovation and technology, has strengthened the way I think about growth, opportunity, and practical solutions. In my work, I’ve led teams focused on strategy, innovation, and delivering results, which has strengthened my ability to listen carefully, weigh competing priorities, and turn ideas into action. Just as importantly, I’m deeply invested in this community as a parent and neighbor. Like so many families, I’m thinking every day about the quality of our public schools, the affordability of daily life, access to healthcare, and the safety and strength of our neighborhoods. Those lived experiences, along with my professional background, have prepared me to serve with empathy, focus, and a commitment to making government work better for the people it represents.
  • Leadership That Delivers: I believe our state government should work for people in real, tangible ways. Too many people feel like the state is wasting their tax dollars instead of delivering the support their families and communities need. Even when families are doing everything right, they are still struggling to get ahead. I’m running to help change that through practical, results-driven leadership.
  • Focused on Families: I’m focused on the issues that most directly affect whether families can build a stable and secure life here in Georgia: making it easier to afford the basics, supporting strong public schools, expanding access to healthcare, and keeping communities safe. These are the areas where state government can make a real difference, and they are the priorities I want to stay centered on throughout this campaign and in public service.
  • Innovation with Purpose: I want voters to remember that I bring a practical, problem-solving mindset and a belief that public policy should be more innovative, more effective, and more responsive to the people it serves. In my professional life, I work at the intersection of strategy, innovation, and execution, and I believe our state government needs more of that same mindset. That means thinking differently, listening carefully, bringing people together, and building solutions that improve people’s lives.
During my wife’s third pregnancy, she went in for a checkup at 8 months. Because of a serious complication, she was sent straight to the hospital for an emergency induction. I could have lost my wife or my daughter.

That experience made healthcare policy deeply personal to me. Georgia has one of the worst maternal mortality rates in the country. Most of these deaths are preventable and reflect policy failures and gaps in access. That is why I am passionate about expanding access to affordable healthcare across Georgia, especially for mothers and children.

I am also passionate about policies that affect whether people can build stable, healthy, hopeful lives. That includes affordability, strong public schools, and public safety.
