Qualifications
I’m a systems administrator and Planning Commission member who focuses on practical problem-solving and making local government work better for residents.
The biggest issue I hear from residents is the rising cost of living, especially housing, utilities, and everyday expenses. Too many families and seniors are being stretched thin.
I would focus on increasing housing supply by allowing a wider range of housing options in the right areas, modernizing utility systems to reduce waste and lower costs, and pushing for policies that increase competition and transparency in healthcare and essential services.
At the local level, that also means smarter planning, responsible growth, and making sure residents understand how decisions are made and how they impact their costs.
Pennsylvania’s elections must be both secure and accessible. I support maintaining strong voter ID requirements, accurate voter rolls, and clear chain-of-custody procedures to ensure trust in the system (without creating "poll taxes"). At the same time, we should expand early voting options, improve mail-in ballot processing, and ensure polling places are well-staffed and easy to access.
I also believe transparency is key. Clear communication, timely reporting, and public confidence in the process are just as important as the policies themselves.
The state budget process should be more transparent, disciplined, and timely. Too often, negotiations happen behind closed doors and drag past deadlines, creating uncertainty for schools, municipalities, and taxpayers.
I would support earlier public review of budget proposals, clear benchmarks throughout the process, and stronger accountability for meeting deadlines. Greater transparency in negotiations and spending decisions would help build trust and allow residents to better understand where their tax dollars are going.
A budget should be on time, easy to understand, and focused on delivering results for the people it serves.
Yes, the state should set baseline standards to address the impacts of data centers on water use, energy demand, and land use as these facilities grow. At the same time, we need to fully understand those impacts through research and data before making broad policy decisions.
Any state standards should focus on infrastructure capacity, environmental protection, and transparency, while still preserving municipal authority under the MPC. Local governments should retain control over zoning and local impacts, with the state providing a consistent framework, not overriding it.
