Training and Experience
For more than 30 years, I worked as an IT consultant and small‑business owner helping Ohio companies solve technology and operational challenges, including consulting engagements in health care and health insurance. I’ve also spent decades advocating for families of children with autism, helping establish Medicaid waiver services that expanded access to care in Ohio. Today, I continue to serve by coaching Special Olympics athletes and supporting autism initiatives in our community.

I believe voting should be simple, secure, and accessible for every eligible American. That means automatic voter registration so people are registered unless they choose not to be, and secure online registration so updating your information is quick and hassle‑free.
We should expand early voting nationwide, giving working families, students, and seniors real flexibility to cast a ballot. And we need a National Voting Day holiday, so no one in this country ever has to choose between their paycheck and their right to vote.
Finally, protecting our democracy means protecting our elections from big money. I support a constitutional amendment to end dark money and limit corporate influence, so voters — not hidden donors — decide our future.
The cost of living is squeezing working families. My American Dividend Plan puts money back in people’s pockets with a guaranteed monthly payment to working‑class Americans.
We also need to stop making life more expensive through bad policy, including politically driven tariffs that raise prices and hit farmers hard.
Affordability means building a system where people aren’t punished by rising costs they can’t control, and my plan delivers that.
We’ve reached a point where too much of our politics is about who gets credit instead of what actually works. It’s time to stop fighting over which party has the idea and start focusing on whether the idea solves a real problem.
I’ve spent my life working with people who didn’t agree with me at first. When I worked on Ohio’s Medicaid Waiver for children with autism, some parent groups were firmly opposed - dead set against actually. We listened, worked through concerns, and those same parents became our strongest allies.
That experience taught me something essential: when you treat people with respect and focus on solutions instead of sides, you can build coalitions that last. That’s the kind of politics I believe in, and it’s the kind I’ll fight for.
America must lead the world by example — defending democracy, human rights, and the rule of law at home and abroad.
Our alliances, especially NATO, are strongest when America is steady and principled. Leadership also means using diplomacy, humanitarian aid, and international cooperation before force.
And in a world shaped by AI, cyber threats, and economic coercion, we must protect our digital infrastructure and strengthen our economic resilience. Leading by example keeps our country safe and our values intact.
America has always been strengthened by immigrants, and our policy should reflect that we welcome those who want to build a life here. At the same time, the system must be orderly and functional.
We need secure borders, modern technology, and significantly faster immigration hearings so people receive timely decisions instead of waiting years. Legal worker programs should be expanded and simplified so employers, including Ohio farmers who rely on seasonal labor, can hire lawfully.
Law enforcement should focus on serious criminals such as traffickers and gang leaders, not on sweeping actions that divide communities.
Smart immigration policy means combining humane values, efficient legal pathways, and strong but targeted enforcement.
