Experience
Nuclear engineer, Navy veteran, former Councilman, synagogue board president, youth coach. EVP of Engineering at a nuclear waste company. Proven leader in infrastructure, public safety, and community engagement.
Supporting police and emergency services is critical to keeping Bensalem safe. We must protect taxpayer dollars through fiscally responsible, transparent budgeting. I’ll be a voice for residents whose concerns have gone unanswered, working with community stakeholders to solve real problems. Overdevelopment threatens our quality of life—I’ll advocate for smart planning that reflects residents’ needs, protects neighborhoods, and improves infrastructure. As a nuclear engineer and former Councilman, I bring experience, data-driven solutions, and a deep commitment to putting people over politics.
I’m running because Bensalem deserves better. As a parent, neighbor, and former Councilman, I’ve seen how current leadership has ignored residents, allowed overdevelopment to spiral, and failed to solve basic problems. I served from 2018 to 2021 and worked to improve public safety, infrastructure, and transparency. I’m also a Navy veteran and nuclear engineer with a lifelong commitment to public service. After stepping back to focus on family and community, I’m ready to return with fresh energy and real solutions. It’s time for experienced leadership that listens, acts with integrity, and puts residents—not politics—first.
I bring a unique blend of military, technical, and local government experience. As a Navy veteran, I understand the importance of discipline, service, and supporting those who protect us—which fuels my commitment to our police and first responders. I’m a licensed nuclear engineer and currently serve as Executive VP at a company focused on nuclear waste solutions. From 2018 to 2021, I served on Bensalem Council, delivering results on public safety and infrastructure. I’ve led large teams, managed complex projects, and served in leadership roles in both my profession and community. I’m prepared to lead with integrity and proven experience.

Bensalem Township Auditor 1999 to 2007; Bensalem Township Council from 2018 to 2021; Bucks County Planning Commission since 2021; Bucks County Community College Trustee since 2024
Bensalem is facing critical challenges—budget deficits, deteriorating water infrastructure, and uncontrolled development—all stemming from 30 years of Republican mismanagement. For years, Republican leadership has masked budget deficits by draining township savings. I am committed to managing the budget responsibly, protecting the homeowner rebate, and prioritizing support for our police, fire, and EMS services.
Bensalem’s water infrastructure urgently needs major investment due to decades of neglected preventive maintenance. Investing in water management will be critical to protect residents and homes. Overdevelopment also remains a growing concern, driven by decisions of the Republican-majority Council.
During my previous service on Council, I helped secure 25+ acres of open space. I intend to expand on that success by protecting more open space, encouraging the revitalization of vacant commercial properties, and making smart, community-focused decisions about future development.
I am running for office with one goal in mind—to serve the residents of Bensalem. My family has lived here for 40 years, and my wife works in Bensalem. Professionally and politically, I’ve always been dedicated to helping others. I was previously elected to Bensalem Council, currently serve on the Bucks County Planning Commission, and as a Trustee for Bucks County Community College, showing a deep commitment to this community.
Bensalem is the largest town in Bucks County, and it requires qualified, experienced leadership to manage one of the county’s largest township budgets. Public safety will always be a top priority—for my family and yours. Bensalem needs fresh leadership that values transparency, ensures tax dollars are used wisely, protects the homeowner rebate, and always puts residents first.
We must also ensure that our children and grandchildren view Bensalem as the place they want to call home. Together, we can build a future that keeps our community thriving for generations.
I bring extensive government and political experience that will strongly support the responsibilities and demands of Bensalem Council. I previously served Bensalem Township as elected Auditor from 1999 to 2007, and as a Council member from 2018 to 2021. Since 2021, I have served on the Bucks County Planning Commission and was recently appointed as a Trustee of Bucks County Community College.
In addition to my public service, I have significant experience as a financial director, bringing the fiscal management expertise needed to make sound judgments on a $70 million budget. During my previous term on Council, I championed budget transparency, increased the homeowner rebate from $100 to $300 and advocated for smart development initiatives that benefited the community. I took pride in holding regular community meetings to address development projects, responding immediately to resident concerns, and serving with integrity and dedication — always prioritizing the needs of our residents.

Experience
19 years Union Carpenter, 3 Years Superintendent, Sports Official 8 years, PIAA Official 3 years, Financial Secretary 5 years, EASRCC Delegate
I would prioritize infrastructure development, enhancing emergency response capabilities, combating overdevelopment, and attracting new businesses to occupy vacant buildings. Additionally, I would focus on upgrading parks by incorporating indoor facilities for basketball, volleyball, pickleball, and a splash pad/pool, as well as a dog park. Furthermore, I would investigate construction aspects to better serve the community, seek opportunities to reduce taxpayer expenses, and support the implementation of term limits. I would also conduct a thorough financial analysis, including a third-party audit, to identify necessary adjustments.
I am deeply invested in my community, having been actively involved since my teenage years. Previously ranked among the top 100 places to live in the USA, I aspire to reclaim this status and strive for even greater excellence, aiming for a ranking within the top 70, 50, and ultimately, the top 10. Maintaining the status quo is no longer sufficient.
I serve as the financial Secretary of Local 167, overseeing financial management. As a delegate to the Eastern Atlantic States Regional Council of Carpenters, I contribute to decision-making processes impacting 50,000+ members across six states. In my role as construction superintendent, I manage job sites and budgets for multi-million-dollar projects. I also facilitate the hiring of incoming apprentices and journeyman. My expertise will be invaluable in addressing construction, maintenance, scheduling, budgeting, finance, and hiring issues within the Council. Additionally, I have managed non-profit programs, such as CYO and pee-wee youth basketball. As a PIAA official, I have honed my ability to navigate diverse attitudes and demeanors while making swift, informed decisions.
