I attended Hill Crest High School in Country Club Hills, IL., and at 16 years old I began working for Dominick's grocery store. I worked there for 20 years, and when my youngest son was born, I pursued a career in carpentry. I graduated from Chicago Regional Counsel of Carpenters, and I've been a carpenter for 15 years. My passion is teaching the Word of God, and I have been preaching the Gospel for over 20 years. I am an ordained minister and I currently pastor the House of David Ministries. I am blessed to be married to my wife for almost 18 years with whom I share 4 great kids.

Please list below 3 key messages of your campaign. What are the main points you want voters to remember about your goals for your time in office?

My campaign was started because of SB818. I will look to repeal all sex education bills, and any bills tied to removing traditional, biological pro-nouns..I plan to stand against totalitarian leadership. For example, SB1169 forbids refusal to participate in medical procedures related to Covid 19. We should have a right to say what we will and will not allow in our bodies.I want to restore parental authority and I will support legislation that will repeal HB370 which destroys parental authority.

What areas of public policy are you personally passionate about?

I am personally passionate about the sex education bill and bills that negatively affect our children.
