I have been a relationship builder my entire life. The military teaches you to learn how to work with every spectrum of diversity in the human race. My experiences have taught me to work together regardless of the differences in order to have mission success, all the while maintaining respect for all involved. I believe that everyone must be treated with respect, if I am to expect respect back. As a business owner, I have respected both my employees and my clients. If not I would not have been very successful.

​

     We need a non-politician in Lansing who will respect those who have elected him. We do not need another politician who is out to please everyone. I do not believe to must please everyone, however you must respect everyone and strive to make a difference.

​

     I have served my Country for my entire adult life, it is now time to serve my Community with just as much passion and skill. I will work together to achieve mission success and have the experience of working with others to do so.

     During the past two years we have seen the over bearing bureaucracy place unconstitutional pressure on small business across the country. It is time to stand up and defend the largest prosperity providers in our communities – our small businesses. It is time to bring accountability to our public tax dollars and to also allow parents to use school vouchers to choose where their children go to school and have those tax dollars follow the child, not the other way around.

​

     As a border district with another state, it is imperative that Michigan voters have a strong Representative in Lansing, that is not bought and paid for by PAC’s and big money nor has personal interests in mind. It is time for civil experience and tempered leadership.
