Steady, Proven Leadership
Government with Integrity
“It has been a distinct honor to serve my community these past five years. I look forward to continuing the work we've started in ensuring Sheboygan is a great place to live, work, and play.”
Representing District 9 since 2018. Finance & Personnel Chairman for the 2021-2022 and 2022-2023 sessions.
As a born and raised Sheboyganite, this is my home. I am invested in maintaining the community and culture that make Sheboygan exceptional.
No personal agendas or petty politics. I am focused on what is best for and important to our community.
Local government is crucial for ensuring the well-being and prosperity of its residents. In this pursuit, it must prioritize four key areas: public safety, infrastructure, city services, and economic development to create a safe, thriving, and prosperous community for all residents.
Sheboygan must have efficient internal operations to provide effective services and meet the needs of residents. This includes streamlining processes, improving communication, utilizing technology and empowering employees through resources, support, and training.
City leaders should make decisions guided by consistent principles and a long-term vision to ensure the best interest of the community as a whole. Such principles must align with residents' needs and beliefs to create a stable framework for decision-making and building trust.
Polls are open on Tuesday April 4th - 7AM-8PM
Many have said that the best form of government is that which stays out of the way. I am often inclined to agree, but there are a handful of areas that do fall under the necessary and proper purview of government entities. Especially local government since it is the closest to the people it represents. These areas should be the main focus of these bodies:
It is imperative for the city to focus on strong financial management. With shrewd utilization, we can ensure that every dollar collected goes as far as possible toward the city’s responsibilities to the public. Efficient spending allows tax dollars collected to remain as low as possible. More money stays in your pocket without a decrease in the quality of services provided.
All modern organizations must take cybersecurity seriously. New technologies stand to improve convenience and efficiency for processes across the entire organization by providing modern tools designed for the jobs at hand. Though the upfront cost is usually notable, the returns still greatly outweigh them when technology is implemented judiciously. I have been happy to see the city’s commitment to embracing technology over the past five years.
The City of Sheboygan, as an entity, is an organization similar to a midsize business. As such, it too has to make considerations regarding internal operations. Efficacious internal operations allow the city to provide high-quality services and ensure public dollars are spent efficiently. The following considerations have been my top priorities:
The truth matters. I always strive to be conscientious and completely forthright.
People deserve to know what their government is doing. Not just the 'what', but the 'why' behind actions.
Servant leaders focus their energy on the growth and well-being of those around them. No self-adulation or prestige chasing.
Best summarized as treating people with basic common decency applied consistently regardless of perceived station.
Equal treatment for every individual. Including consistent applications of all rules without favoritism or arbitrary exceptions.
I have and will continue to only work toward what I believe is best for our community and morally right. Personal gain will never be a motivating factor.
