Responsible Growth, Strong Families

New Energy for Utah Senate District 11

As a 41-year-old husband, father, small business owner and business consultant with 18+ years experience in technology, operations, and energy infrastructure, I understand the daily challenges facing families in Eagle Mountain, Tooele, Herriman, Magna, and Kearns. It's time for infrastructure-first development that protects our quality of life.

Why I'm Running

Personal Motivation

This isn't about politics for me - it's personal. It's about protecting the quality of life that drew our families to Utah in the first place.

Every morning, I sit in the same traffic you do. I watch my neighbors struggle with 60-90 minute commutes that steal time from their families. I see schools overcrowded because houses were approved before infrastructure was planned.

What Makes Me Different

  • Lives the commute - experiences the same daily traffic frustrations as neighbors
  • Family-focused approach - Behavioral Science - Family Studies education guides policy decisions
  • Infrastructure expertise - hands-on experience building energy systems from ground up
  • Utah roots - went to school here, chose to raise family here, invested in community's future
