It would be an honor to continue to serve as your representative to the Maine Legislature. As a life-long Mainer, small business owner, and a parent of three children, I am concerned that we are not focusing on the areas that have historically made our state strong and vibrant. Instead government is placing an immense burden upon our citizens and the businesses that offer good jobs. The results are restricting the creativity and resources we need to get Maine moving again. This course must change, we need good people who will go to Augusta to seek better solutions to the problems facing us and our communities.

We need government to focus on that which it can and must do and not get into areas in which it does not need to be.

I don’t claim to have all the answers to the issues facing our state, and the only thing I will promise is what I can be sure to deliver; that I will listen to your concerns, and work hard to find a solution and that I will respect that fact that you placed your trust in me to represent you.

I look forward to meeting you and hearing about your interests and concerns. I would appreciate your input and support.


I have chosen to run as a traditional candidate, meaning I will not accept taxpayer funds to run for office. To be true to my pledge to respect your tax dollars I can’t ask for more of them to run for office, so I must earn your financial support as well as your trust.
