I am concerned that our country is headed in the wrong direction and we desperately need elected officials who are interested in solving problems rather than seeking attention on social media and the news to promote their own political careers.  I am running for State Senate because we need proven leaders who have served their community and represent the conservative values of defending the constitution, protecting the unborn and those who cannot help themselves, reducing big government, lowering taxes, supporting our first responders, and promoting capitalism in our economy.  As a husband, father, and small businessman I want to bring my real-world experience along with my constitutional conservative Republican principles to the state senate.
