I’ve lived here in Des Moines for 24 years.  This is where my wife, Kristin, and I raised our two boys.  I’m running for Council to give back to our community and help build a vibrant city for all families.

I will prioritize improving development downtown and the marina, creating sustainable budgeting and to improving transparency and civility on the council. Building our infrastructure, including more parking, will help attract visitors to grow our city to be a great place to raise a family.

With an extensive legal background as an Administrative Law Judge, private attorney, and City and County Prosecutor, I have the skills and experience to responsibly manage the city’s budget and will ensure that our neighborhoods are safe and vibrant.  Most importantly, I look forward to hearing from you – please reach out with your concerns and ideas for our city.  I humbly ask for your vote.
