Reason for seeking position:
I’m running for the State Senate because I have a passion for service - community involvement is what I do.

My family first settled in Reno in 1914 making me a third-generation Reno resident. My wife, Dana, and I have been married for 34 years and are the proud parents to three beautiful daughters who all live and work right here in Nevada. One in law enforcement, one in health care and the other works in electric vehicle technology.

I’m running because I care deeply about the future of our city and state. My goal is to make Nevada the best place in America to raise a family by increasing quality-of-life and decreasing the cost it takes to afford it.

I have been a volunteer community leader most of my life. Planning for retirement, running to serve the constituents of District 15 is the next step in that community service.

I have experience in volunteer leadership roles serving as the original Sierra Nevada Community Aquatics nonprofit president to get the new Moana pool built, Chairman and Commissioner of the City of Reno Parks & Recreation, Caughlin Ranch HOA, City of Reno Neighborhood Advisory Board, Nevada Interscholastic Athletic Association, Reno Area Triathletes, Ironman Lake Tahoe, and a volunteer with the Washoe County School District.

I love living in the Reno area and there is no better place to call home.

I am running for State Senate District 15 because I have proven that I truly care what happens in our community. If you’re tired of partisan politics - then I’m your guy; I’m just running to get to work for you.

I humbly ask for your support and your vote.
