House 117; Henderson Co.
I’m an educator, band director, and single father running to ensure every child in North Carolina has access to quality education, including music and the arts. I’ve spent my career helping students find their voices—and now I’m ready to bring those voices to Raleigh.

With over 30 years in business, technology, and career development, I’ve helped students gain skills and envision bright futures. That’s the kind of impact that lasts for generations. I’m ready to lead, inspire, serve, and achieve as we head to Raleigh to strengthen public education for all.

I am running because the promises made to North Carolinians are not being kept, and I have seen the direct impact of this failure in our classrooms.
