I am a former medic in the United States Army Reserves who was honorably discharged after 8 years serving our country. I graduated from Rockhurst University in 2016 with a Bachelor’s degree in Economics and Psychology, and graduated from Arkansas State University with a Master’s in Public Administration. I currently live in Independence with my wife Haven, and our dogs and cats.

I have worked for multiple nonprofits spanning issues from economic development to animal welfare improvement. I currently serve on the Independence Board of Adjustment and as the President of the Jackson County Animal Welfare Committee. I believe deeply in servant leadership and have nearly a decade of policy experience and relationships, making me ready to serve you on day one. 

I hope to earn your vote to become your next city councilman to help tackle issues like housing affordability, drug addiction, and small business investment. I am excited to serve the people of Independence and look forward to meeting you in your community soon. 

If you have any questions, concerns, or suggestions, please do not hesitate to send me a message via social media, phone, or email.
