Reason for Seeking Public Office:
I want to represent you in the Colorado house. That means I want to build on my knowledge and skills by listening to you, learning from you, and forming a partnership with leaders and professionals in our district. I will build relationships in Denver, argue and convince on your behalf, and vote your principles.
I'm a retired business executive and small business entrepreneur
I want to make as much of a difference as I can.
I believe in public service. I served in the United States Army during Viet Nam and I look forward to working for you in the Colorado House as another way to serve.
Joyce and I are looking forward to getting to know you and work with you.
Thank you for the opportunity to be with you and start that process.
