​A Lifetime of Service. A New Mission for Tennessee.

Hello, TN District 4!

​I’m stepping forward to serve you once again. For those who don't know me, my life has been defined by a commitment to our country and our community. I am a 24-year retired U.S. Air Force veteran, a retired Senior Emergency Planner for the Strategic National Stockpile (HHS), and a 10-year veteran volunteer firefighter.

​My wife, Stacy, and I have called Manchester home for 18 years. We’ve raised our three children and I want to ensure the Tennessee they inherit remains strong, affordable, and constitutionally free.

​I am running for the U.S. House of Representatives because District 4 deserves a leader who understands the value of a dollar, the importance of our land, and the sanctity of service.

Proven Leadership and a Lifetime of Service

​My candidacy is built on a foundation of 24 years of service as a U.S. Air Force veteran, a retired Senior Emergency Planner for the Strategic National Stockpile (HHS), and a decade as a volunteer firefighter. For 18 years, my wife Stacy and I have called Manchester home, raising our three children here. I am not a career politician; I am a public servant who has spent my life solving complex problems in high-stakes environments. I am stepping forward for a new mission: to ensure the Tennessee our children inherit remains strong, constitutionally free, and defined by the same sanctity of service that has guided my entire career.Fiscal Responsibility and Congressional Accountability

​Washington is failing the American taxpayer, and District 4 deserves a leader who understands the value of a dollar. My "Tennessee First" platform prioritizes aggressive fiscal responsibility to tackle inflation and rein in reckless spending that fuels our national debt. I am a firm advocate for Congressional accountability, including the implementation of Term Limits. I also believe in a "No Work, No Pay" policy: if the federal government shuts down and hardworking Americans suffer, Congress should not receive a paycheck. It is time to bring a "service-first" mentality back to the U.S. House of Representatives.Protecting Tennessee’s Land, Seniors, and Rural Communities

​I am committed to protecting the Tennessee way of life. This means fighting for federal legislation that prevents foreign adversaries from purchasing our farmland and ensuring our infrastructure—our roads and bridges—receives the tax dollars it deserves. Drawing on my background in emergency planning, I will launch initiatives to bridge the gap in rural healthcare access. Furthermore, I will champion federal tax relief for seniors and support state-led initiatives to eliminate property taxes for long-term residents who have contributed to our community for over 10 years. My mission is to make Tennessee affordable again for working families and secure for the generations to follow.

What areas of public policy are you personally passionate about?

​"I am deeply passionate about restoring integrity and accountability to the federal government through structural reform. My primary focus includes:

​Congressional Term Limits: To ensure a citizen legislature rather than a career political class, I support constitutional term limits to bring fresh perspectives and urgency to Washington.

​Ending Continuing Resolutions (CRs): I am committed to a functional budget process. We must end the cycle of 'budgeting by crisis' and stop the use of CRs that bypass debate and inflate our national debt.

​Banning Insider Trading: Members of Congress should not profit from non-public information. I advocate for strict bans on individual stock trading by lawmakers to eliminate conflicts of interest and rebu
