Who are you? Tell us about yourself.

I am a life long resident of Fort Kent. I was raised on a potato farm where I developed a strong work ethic and have applied that ethic as a practicing Dentist for 44 years, as an active member of my church, as a volunteer in the community and as Ski Patrol director.

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?

During the course of my career, I have had countless discussions with people about the impact politics has on them; both positive and negative. The extensive understanding I have gained of the people of District 1 enables me to effectively be their voice in Agusta.I’m running because the people of House District 1,

including me, are experiencing many economical and social challenges brought on by the present political policies in our state.

I know what people are facing because I’ve heard their voices and I understand and agree with their concerns.I am a man of action, so I’ve decided to roll up my sleeves and get involved. There’s one common theme I’m hearing right now: it’s time for a change for the better.

What areas of public policy are you personally passionate about?

Legislative policies that contribute to the rising cost of living need to change.
