The Independent Choice for Chatham County
No party bosses. No culture wars. An independent voice for affordability, opportunity, and a government that has to answer for its record.
Every election should offer voters a choice.
If no one steps up, our current NC House Rep sails into another term unopposed. A real republic asks officials to defend their record every election — so this campaign keeps the receipts in public.
Every request to debate, every letter, every reply — on the record, where you can check it.

Six priorities, no party line
Practical positions aimed at what actually helps Chatham County families — not partisan talking points.
Affordability
Lowering taxes and everyday costs so families and seniors can stay in the communities they call home.
Smart Regulation
Protecting people and the environment without crushing small businesses or killing local jobs.
Family
Respecting the right of parents to raise their children without unnecessary government interference.
Economic Opportunity
Creating conditions for businesses to grow and workers to build better, more secure lives.
Accountable Government
Requiring elected officials to defend their record instead of running unopposed.
Practical Solutions
Focusing on what actually works instead of partisan talking points or culture wars.
One policy a month, written where everyone can read it
Each month I publish a concrete proposal — model legislation included — and take it to two town halls for open Q&A. Come see what I actually stand for.
The Accountability & Government Spending Act
Any state expenditure over $1 million sets aside 3% for an independent, external audit. You paid for it — you should be able to see exactly where it went.
I've done more than talk about service
U.S. Marine
As a forward-deployed combat arms captain in the USMC, I did more than just talk about service and commitment to our country.
Attorney
It doesn't take a Harvard Law degree to write legislation that gets us back on track — but it helps.
Business Leader
With an MBA from Duke and 20 years in life science and agtech, I understand how policy affects jobs and innovation.
Father & Husband
Having raised two adult children and one still in public school, my wife and I understand what families need to thrive.
North Carolinian
I have chosen North Carolina three times and always returned to the state I've called home since 2005.
Volunteer
From serving as a Guardian ad Litem to helping in my church, I believe community service is the foundation of a strong society.

Two Saturdays a month. Same places. Always.
Show up, ask anything, and see the policy of the month in person. Coffee and donuts on me.
Saturday Fireside — Siler City
Best Food, Siler City. Coffee, donuts, a short stump, and open Q&A on this month's policy.
Patio Meetup — Mosaic, Chatham
On the patio before the doors open. Same idea, other end of the district. Bring your questions.
First one had six people in the room. Get in at the beginning — we'll need a bigger room soon enough.
