As a Veteran, I believe in service to my Country because the Oath never ends. Mission first, People Always is the motto of the Non-Commissioned Officer. As an Engineer I have worked on complex, billion-dollar projects, managed and developed budgets, and worked to serve my clients with integrity.
If elected, I will put the community first and support people-first development by asking practical questions and using data to make informed, common-sense decisions.
I’m asking for your support so we can have a council that seeks community input before making decisions, invests in infrastructure improvements, and balances responsible, people-first growth with preserving what makes Marana special.
Help power a people-first future for Marana!

As an Engineer, I approach growth by balancing inputs and outputs; we must rigorously calculate long-term water and electricity costs of every project
We need to move with "feet of lead" and careful planning to avoid stumbling into disasters, rather than rushing into projects like hyperscale data centers
We need to fix our current infrastructure choke points, such as the Tangerine interchange, rather than adding more traffic and strain without a plan.
Growth must be sustainable; we cannot allow projects that threaten to consume enough power for the entire city or deplete our groundwater in an active water management zone.
-
I will oppose "sweetheart deals" and non-disclosure agreements with billionaire investors that leave residents in the dark
We must learn from the PFAS crisis—which is costing us millions and raising water bills—by ensuring we know all the risks and chemical inputs of industrial projects before they are built.
Any industrial development, such as a data center, must be transparent about the chemicals used in cooling loops to prevent groundwater contamination.
I will fight to protect residential ratepayers from bearing the cost of infrastructure upgrades needed solely for massive industrial power users.

I am running a self-funded campaign and will not accept contributions from developers, mining companies, or related industries to ensure I remain independent.
Representation must be active, not passive; I will hold regular office hours and town halls so you don't have to hunt for information about what is happening in your town.
Major decisions that alter our community should be put to a vote; I support referenda that allow the citizens of Marana to decide for themselves
Residents deserve a government that listens before decisions are made, rather than a council that nods along to developers while ignoring the implications of billion-dollar projects.
