Principles

PUBLIC SERVICE

My passion for public service is proven by my work in the Adams County District Attorney’s Office where I seek justice by balancing the interests of the victim, the community, and defendant.  I also served on various community boards including the Adams County Planning Commission, where I always sought outcomes that benefited residents, businesses, and public agencies.

HARD WORK

Through hard work, I earned an education, nurtured a family, and established a successful career.  I graduated from Colorado State University by working construction during the summers and work-study during the school year.  A few years later, I graduated from the University of Denver Sturm College of Law while working full-time in the private sector for a global management consulting company.

FAMILY & COMMUNITY 

Dedication to family and community is the foundation of my passion.  As a father, husband, homeowner, and taxpayer, I expect our government to spend our money wisely for the benefit of our citizens.  I am committed to preserving and enhancing the quality of life for our residents and maximizing economic prosperity for our local businesses.
