Before moving to John Day, I was a Senior Associate with consulting firm Booz Allen Hamilton, where I managed a multi-billion dollar technology investment portfolio. I have also worked as a Project Manager with Jacobs Engineering managing complex technology acquisitions. I began my career as an intelligence analyst with the Defense Intelligence Agency.

My focus is on increasing John Day's growth rate by stimulating private and public sector investment. I am a champion for rural innovation and successfully lobbied the state legislature in 2017 for a $2.25M public stimulus package to help improve our area's broadband and 9-1-1 infrastructure. I am a frequent speaker at regional and national conferences on technology policy and innovation. I strive to bring my expertise in technology entrepreneurship and public policy to benefit our city and to advocate for rural-frontier communities throughout eastern Oregon. 

I hold a Masters in Public Administration from the Evans School of Public Policy and Governance and a Certificate in Technology Entrepreneurship from the Foster School of Business at the University of Washington, with a Bachelor of Science in Microbiology from Brigham Young University. My wife, Morgan, was raised in John Day and we have two wonderful children, Kaden (13) and Penelope (4).
