Biography: 

I am a native West Virginian residing in Mannington (Marion county). I truly enjoy the small town lifestyle that can be found here which makes the commute to work worth it since both my wife and I work for WVU Medicine in Morgantown. My professional life has been a mixture of commissioned sales / management, and work in behavioral and mental health. That unique combination offers me an insight to the constant struggle West Virginians face in maintaining a living wage, and remain in good health. I am pro organized labor and have even been an active member of CWA when I worked in that field. 

Top Issues:

In no order of importance:

Affordability across several topics for all West Virginians 

Improving public education 

Addressing our infrastructure (roads, water systems, power, and communication)

Healthcare (cost, accessibility, and quality of care)

These broad topics, once properly addressed, will help with a living wage, quality jobs, and better lives for everyone.
