As a lifelong resident of West Virginia, I know firsthand how great of a place it is to live and raise a family. The area is beautiful, there are a range of outdoor activities, and we have a lot of great people. Living here does have its challenges though and good jobs are hard to come by. Even though the cost of living is low, salaries are oftentimes much less in some areas.
My wife and I love living in the state of West Virginia and are proud to call it our home. We want our children, and eventually our grandchildren, to grow up and love West Virginia and all it has to offer. So many of our friends have left over the years, and now their children are leaving too. And it's tough to watch. Our population has been steadily declining for years and we are losing good people. This trend needs to stop, which is why I decided to run for the Delegate in 78.
As a licensed professional engineer, I've had years of training and experience studying and correcting problems and I believe I can make a difference in Charleston.
It's heartbreaking to know that local children had to sit in church parking lots during the winter to get internet access from school bus hot spots. In addition to the broadband issue, parts of our state do not even have clean drinking water or reliable roads to access local communities.
We need better infrastructure. Improved infrastructure will attract sustainable industries to West Virginia. This, in turn, means more jobs and better pay, which is exactly what we need to make our state into one where people don't want to leave. Rather, making it one that attracts people and their families. Without development of these key components, it will be difficult for West Virginia to experience the growth that it needs for a better future.

I have been committed to community service my whole life.
Prior to moving to Morgantown I completed my Eagle Scout Project in Bridgeport by helping them to move the library across town. This project taught me valuable lessons about working together to help the community and taking leadership of projects to achieve a goal together.
Upon moving to Morgantown, I got involved with SteppingStones working the Haunted Hayride and became involved with other projects they needed, including teaching students, fund raising activities and other tasks. Over the years I have branched out to work with Catholic Charities, St Ursula's Food Pantry, and Operation Welcome Home among others.
Additionally, I'm very involved with the Knights of Columbus, having served as a local Grand Knight for many years. I was also the State Deputy for two years, during which time which time we saw growth of programs that help the residents of West Virginia and around the world. Together we launched a program that has provided over 300,000 meals to people on the margins. This commitment to service has prepared me for service as delegate of the people of Monongalia County
Our roads are crumbling and 30% of our population doesn't have reliable broadband access. Over 50% of our citizens rely on ground water for domestic needs. We must focus on fixing these problems if we are going to grow into the future.
In the last decade West Virginia has seen a population decline of 3.3%, more than any other State in the US. We can not continue to export people because what we are sending away is the future of West Virginia. Investment in infrastructure will help attract sustainable jobs. Those jobs will be the key to retaining our youth.
Our public teachers are burdened with many tasks and issues beyond teaching our children. We need to make steps toward lightening this load so they can get back to teaching. Additionally, education choice is essential. Children and families have many different needs, and we need to accommodate those with suitable options.
