I am running for Congress for a single purpose: To restore and defend our God-given rights. Born and raised in Northeast Ohio, I am a firm believer that you won’t find better people anywhere in this country. Hard workers, strong families and down to earth good people. These are the people that make District 7 and our country great, but our potential is being held back by a government that wants to control every aspect of our lives.
I graduated with a Finance Degree from the University of Findlay with $100,000 in student loans and currently live in a small duplex with 2 roommates. A millennial with copious amounts of debt who has to find ways to pay the rent. Stop me if you’ve heard this story before. The media and the Democrat Party would have you believe that everyone like me wants the government to forgive my loans and pay for my housing with taxpayer money. They would be wrong. I, like so many others, simply want the government out of my life.
I have always wanted my life to be measured in impact, not dollars and cents. That is why I am the proud founder of two service-based non-profit organizations that work to build up our communities by renovation rundown baseball fields, planting urban gardens, putting on donation drives for the homeless and more. I have spent my career in sales & marketing roles and have spent my time in politics championing an America-First message in North East Ohio.- I believe that the only legitimate role of the federal government is to uphold our Constitution and defend the rights of the individual. Unfortunately, our government has infilitrated nearly every aspect of our personal lives. We must greatly reduce the size of government and return the power back to our states, communities and families.
- America needs outsiders. We need public servants who understand what it means to live and work in our communities. What it means to live in debt, pay the rent and find ways to get by. We can no longer allow this "country club" of politicians to dominate the will of the people.
- Our rights do not come from any man or government. Our rights are handed down to us by a divine creator who wishes for us to live free, meaningful and virtuous lives.
-Banning vaccine and mask mandates
-Banning any government entity from shutting down private businesses, churches & schools
Securing Our Border:
-Finish the wall
-Increase ICE presence
-Mandate E-verify
-End chain migration/VISA lottery
-Ban illegal immigrants from receiving government assistance
Securing Our Elections:
-Institute nationwide photo voter ID requirements
-Ban all unsolicited mail-in voting
-Criminalize ballot harvesting
Stop Inflation & Make America Energy Independent:
-End reckless spending
-Pass a balanced budget amendment
-Expand United States drilling & fracking
Take On Big Tech:
-Remove the federal government from all contracts with big tech monopolies that censor the free and legal speech of America citizens
-Remove all legal protections of big tech monopolies that squash free speech
Right to Life:
-Defund Planned Parenthood
-Given that science has proven that human life begins at conception, we must end abortion in America.
Fight Corruption:
-Term limits
-Bans on elected officials becoming lobbyists
-Severely shrink the administrative bureaucracy
Education:
-Abolish the federal department of education
-Ban CRT
-Ban radical gender theory & comprehensive sex-ed

I am 24 years old. I graduated from the University of Findlay with $100,000 in student loans and I currently live in a small duplex in Cleveland with 2 roommates. A millennial with copious amounts of debt who has to find ways to pay the rent. Stop me if you've heard this story before. The media and the Democrat Party would have you believe that everyone like me wants the government to forgive my loans and pay for my housing with taxpayer money. They would be wrong. I, like so many others, simply want the government out of my life.
After graduation, I knew I wanted my life to be measured in impact, not in dollars and cents. In 2018 I founded my non-profit organization, Diamonds in the Rough. Having played baseball my entire life through little league, high school, collegiate and professionally, I know what a huge positive impact that sports can have on one's life. I also realized that so many communities lacked any recreational opportunity. Diamonds in the Rough is dedicated to transforming neglected baseball fields, in underprivileged communities, into state of the art ballparks.- My campaign will be centered on The Great American Idea that each individual should dictate their own life and destiny. This idea has led to the most prosperous and free society that the world has ever seen. I believe that a mother should decide where her child goes to school, not the federal government. I believe a senior citizen should make healthcare decisions that are best for them, not the federal government. I believe that YOU, the individual, should have control over your own life.
- I want every individual to know that they can provide an infinitely better life for themselves than the federal government ever could.
- I do not care if you are a Democrat, Independent, Republican or Libertarian, I will always fight for your right to live free and make your own decisions. America is at a crossroads, seemingly more divided than ever. If we are to move forward as a nation we must learn to love and respect one another, regardless of our political disagreements. Please join me as I work to heal this country and fight for the great people of Ohio's 11th district.
There is no reason that a child born in East Cleveland should have less access to quality education than a child born in Beachwood. For decades, politicians have continued to pour money into failing public schools and programs all while attempting to limit the choices that parents have over their children's education. Added to the fact that the government has forced a one-size-fits-all standardized approach to teaching and learning, much of our education system has been broken for some time. The solution is putting more power in the hands of parents and children. This means continuing to advocate for greater school choice, proper funding of charter schools that out perform traditional public schools and equipping our children with life skills rather than "teaching to the test."
