Why I’m Running

Local elections matter—and too often, they’re overlooked. I’ve seen firsthand how many local races go uncontested, with just one candidate representing both major parties. That’s not how democracy should work.

I’m running because I believe local elections are ground zero for American politics and deserve real choices and quality candidates on both sides of the aisle. The Republican Party hasn’t had a true nominee for East Huntingdon Tax Collector since 2001. After more than two decades, it’s time to offer voters a bona fide conservative with the qualifications to earn their vote.

I’m looking to give East Huntingdon residents real choices—at the ballot box and beyond. Whether it’s how you vote or how you pay your taxes, local government should meet people where they are. That means more flexibility, more convenience, and more ways to get things done. No one should have to rearrange their life just to take care of everyday responsibilities.

My goal is simple: make tax collection work better for everyone. That means adding evening and weekend hours, offering an online payment option, and being responsive to the needs of our community. You deserve a system that fits your schedule—not the other way around.

This is the centerpiece of my campaign: On May 20th, vote. Give yourself six months to make a choice in November.
