I am honored to be your state representative and bring coastal common sense to Salem.

I’ve lived in this community for nearly 50 years. My wife Susan is a registered nurse. We’ve raised 4 children and have 7 grandchildren.

Over my career I’ve educated children as a teacher, principal, and superintendent. From my experience working for a local tourist destination I know how dependent our economy is on the rest of the state and country.

I’m frustrated that our jobs, way of life, and our communities are threatened by special interests and politicians in Salem and Portland.

Our coastal communities will not survive high taxes, rising energy costs, and threats to our personal freedoms.

Let’s take back local control of our coastal communities and bring common sense to Salem!
