Why am I running to be on the Council in Orono?
 

My wife, Holly, grew up near Orono and attended school here. In 2016, we moved here so our daughters could follow her footsteps. They got to participate in solar boat, theater, and softball (that I got to help coach).
 

Now that they have graduated, I’m ready to take a step in serving the community that has become such an important part of our family’s life.
 

Professionally, I bring more than 25 years of experience in international business, project budgeting, and cybersecurity. This time has taught me the importance of thoughtful planning, responsible financial management, collaboration, and looking at challenges from different perspectives.

 

I want to bring those skills to city government while continuing to build on what makes Orono a special place to live—our strong community, excellent schools, and appreciation for our natural spaces. I’m excited about the opportunity to listen to our residents, contribute my experience, and help shape our city's future.
