Who are you? Tell us about yourself.

I live in Ballwin with my wife, Sarah, and our three-year-old daughter. I graduated from the University of Missouri – St. Louis and work at the Missouri Higher Education Loan Authority (MOHELA). I am proud of my active role at Trinity Presbyterian Church where I have served as a deacon.

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?

I believe the government should be accountable to taxpayers on how our money is spent while reducing the tax burden on hard-working Missourians.I believe in education and policies that promote not only quality STEM based jobs, but also workforce development to entice growth in skilled jobs.I believe we owe a debt of gratitude to law enforcement and first responders who stand on the front lines to protect us, and I will never support any measure to defund the police.

What areas of public policy are you personally passionate about?

I am dedicated to lifting up all Missourians to ensure they have a bright future. Having worked at MOHELA, I have helped many college graduates buried under student loan debt which is preventing them from buying a home or starting a family. Not only do we need to adopt policies that make higher education affordable, but we must also adopt policies that promote both high paying STEM jobs and skilled jobs, such as mechanics, plumbers, and HVAC workers.
