Who are you? Tell us about yourself.

I am a businessman, investor, and lifelong conservative with more than 40 years of experience in finance, commodities, investing, and venture capital. Over the course of my career, I have managed risk, analyzed markets, built businesses, and made responsible financial decisions in both strong and challenging economic environments. That real-world financial experience is exactly what Nevada needs in its next State Treasurer.

I’m running because I believe taxpayer dollars should be treated with the same discipline, accountability, and common sense that families and businesses apply to their own finances every day. Nevada deserves a Treasurer who understands financial management not from a textbook, but from decades of firsthand experience in the private sector.

I believe strongly in conservative principles, fiscal responsibility, and transparency in public office. I’m not a career politician, I'm someone who has spent a lifetime working in finance and problem solving, and I want to bring that experience to serve the people of Nevada.

Nevada’s economy succeeds when businesses are able to invest, expand, and create jobs without excessive government waste.
