Why I'm Running

I wasn’t planning to run for office again. After serving two terms in the New Hampshire House, I thought I did my time in public service and decided to not run again.

But when local leaders couldn’t find another Republican candidate in time for Jaffrey and Dublin, they reached out and asked me to step up. After talking it over with my wife, I accepted the call.

Jaffrey and Dublin deserve experienced, common-sense representation — and I’m ready to serve again.

Bipartisan Experience

While serving in Concord I built alliances with Democrats, Republicans, progressives, and libertarians to get things done for our region.

Deep Local Roots

From growing up visiting Jaffrey as a child to now raising my family here, this community has always been part of my life.

Real-World Perspective

As a veteran, helicopter instructor, and heating fuel driver, I bring practical, hands-on experience to every decision.
