Building a great future together!

 I’m running for Trustee to honor Chester Township’s proud past while building a prosperous future. My wife Katie and I chose Chester a decade ago for its country living/lifestyle, great schools, and safe community. We’re raising our family here — and I want Chester to remain the kind of place future generations are proud to call home. As a business executive/owner in engineering, construction, and manufacturing, I will work to bring a results-driven, practical perspective to township government. As in business, challenges will come — but working together, I know we can find solutions that build a thriving future for Chester while maintaining its core values. As Trustee my current focus priorities will be: 

​

Transparency & Communication 

• Stream & record township meetings 

• Expand & enhance online tools 

• Increase social media engagement 

​​

Stronger Commercial Districts 

• Support long-standing local businesses 

• Work to help businesses/ property owners in filling empty commercial properties 

• Proactively find solutions for abandoned commercial properties - such as the former Buck Stop and Burger King properties. 

• Strengthen Chester's core commercial district, while keeping its character

​

Efficient, Effective Services 

• Deliver best-in-class services, with budget responsible management

• Apply business-minded efficiency concepts to township operations 

• Maximize available revenue streams - grants, state funds, etc. 

• Drive continuous improvement in how residents are served 

​

Protecting Chester's Countryliving Lifestyle 

• Preserve our rural / semi-rural lifestyle and large-lot living

• Drive us into the future while protecting what makes Chester unique

• Develop options for seniors to age in place, without leaving Chester.
