Snoqualmie is where my wife and I chose to raise our two young daughters—a close-knit community known for its natural beauty, safety, and walkability.

For over 15 years, I’ve advised governments and businesses, leading teams, managing budgets, and crafting common-sense solutions. As a Planning Commissioner, I’ve supported local merchants by cutting red tape and promoting walkable retail. I’ll bring that same pragmatic, inclusive leadership to our City Council.

On the Council, I’ll prioritize public safety to ensure officers and first responders have the tools they need. I’ll partner with small businesses in our Historic Downtown and the Ridge to keep Snoqualmie’s retail corridors vibrant year-round. I’ll also work to rebuild trust with North Bend so we can partner on opportunities and tackle challenges together. I’m committed to preserving what makes Snoqualmie special while shaping a vision for our future with openness and collaboration. Endorsements: King County and 12th LD Democrats.

My family moved to Snoqualmie in 2011 and fell in love with the city. My wife opened Rooster Valley Farm School downtown the following year, and I began running adult sports leagues for folks in the community. I ran for Council to be of service. I'd like you to understand how I make decisions as a councilman.

With any decision that comes before the Council, I measure my response based primarily on three values that I consider to be of paramount importance. Public Safety; Fiscal Responsibility; Individual Rights. If a decision conflicts with any of these values, that's of great concern to me. Occasionally these values naturally come into conflict with one another, making the calculation difficult, even painful. It's a great responsibility.

It has been an honor serving as one of your representatives on council for the past term. I hope you'll allow me to continue working for you.
