I’m a proud Democrat running to represent Tennessee’s 5th District in the U.S. House of Representatives in 2026. It’s an honor to stand up for our shared values and fight for a brighter future for all Tennesseans.

This campaign isn’t about politics; it’s about creating a path forward for all Tennesseans. A path that includes access to healthcare, great jobs, and affordable housing and one that saves Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security.

My passion for service has been shaped by a lifetime of leadership in business and nonprofit communities. I’ve always believed that real solutions start with listening and showing up for others. As Chief Operating Officer of a national healthcare company serving vulnerable individuals across the country, I work daily to deliver compassionate, effective care and advocate for those whose voices are often unheard.

Here at home, my work in our local communities is rooted in a deep understanding of the challenges to a better wellbeing and how to solve real problems in everyday life, insights I’ve gained through years of hands-on experience.

My wife Bethany and I are proud to raise our blended family of ten children on a small farm in Columbia, Tennessee. Around our dinner table, everyone has a seat, and every voice matters. It’s a place for thoughtful conversation, open hearts, and plenty of laughter, values that guide how I live and lead. I’m running because Tennessee deserves a representative who leads with integrity, listens with humility, and fights for everyday families like yours.
