Public officials were established to represent us.  We are a free country that is self-governed.  The best way to maintain our freedom is to elect good, fair and honest people to represent us.

I have been in the Financial Services industry for 24 years.  Some of my specialties are retirement and estate planning.  Being a small business owner in the Financial Services industry has taught me how to understand our economy at an in-depth level.  I am also licensed through the State of Washington to offer Health Insurance policies.  My experience applies to some of our most critical issues, like Health Care, Social Security, Medicare, Retirement Savings, etc.

I am very passionate about serving and caring for people.  I can relate to people of all economic standings and backgrounds.  I have relationships with people at all levels in our society.  Even though I am running as a Republican I will always endeavor to put the people before my party.  The party leadership understands my position on this issue too.

I ran for the Sammamish City Council in 2007 and have stood up for numerous issues since then.

I promise that I will do all I can to serve you.  I want to reach all people.  I would like Democrats, Independents and all people of any persuasion to please consider voting for me.  I figure that when we put people first we all win.  I was born in Seattle and have lived in Washington my entire life.  I have 3 children.  My daughter is 18 and my identical twin boys are 16.  My campaign slogan is "A Better Washington for All".
