Fix the root causes of homelessness

Homelessness in Tallahassee is often driven by addiction, mental illness, and domestic violence. These are difficult problems that require compassion and practical solutions.

I work with people facing these challenges every week. I volunteer my time and resources to support individuals struggling with addiction and mental health crises. I started my company in part to give myself the flexibility to continue that work.

Compassion must be paired with action. Our city should coordinate better with nonprofits, healthcare providers, and law enforcement so people get help earlier instead of falling through the cracks.

Leadership without party politics

I am running as a true independent.

I’ve worked with people across the political spectrum and I respect them. What I don’t respect is dogma.

Good ideas can come from anywhere. My approach is simple: listen first, evaluate the facts, and choose the solution that works.

Bring operational discipline to City Hall

My career in IT spans from small businesses to the Florida state data center serving every state agency.

I led projects such as a statewide Security Incident Reporting Dashboard, designed to detect and track cyberattacks across agencies. That work required coordination between dozens of agencies and technical teams to identify threats before they spread.

Another project I spearheaded was the Capacity and Cost Dashboard, which allowed agencies to see service uptime, outages, costs, and performance metrics in real time.

City government should operate with the same clarity and accountability. Stay Tuned to see what I can do just as a citizen.

Tallahassee deserves a champion

Tallahassee is a remarkable city. With steady leadership and a focus on people over politics, we can make it even better.

My goal is simple: help Tallahassee thrive and make life a little easier for the people who call it home.

Make Tallahassee Friendly to Business

Permitting should exist to ensure safety and standards β€” not to slow down entrepreneurs. Promoting the CRA for small business loans to start and expand.

As mayor I will:

Tallahassee should be known as a place where small businesses can start and grow without unnecessary friction.
A full-time mayor focused on service

This city deserves leadership that treats the job with seriousness and care.

I will serve as a full-time mayor with kindness, calm leadership, and the confidence to make decisions.

I’ve spent my life navigating complex systems and solving problems under pressure. But the work I value most is the quiet, steady work of serving a community.

Help qualify this campaign

Right now my priority is collecting ballot petitions to qualify for the ballot.

You can download a petition form and print as many as you like. I’m also around town regularly collecting signatures, so if you see me, say hello.

Whether you plan to vote for me or not, I want to hear from you about what’s happening in your neighborhood.
Call or set a meeting with me to return completed forms.
