Building McHenry County’s future with practical experience, responsible growth, and respect for our land and water.

County Board needs Democrat representation.  

I have been dedicated to raising a family, continuing my education, working hard, volunteering for the community and paying taxes to support my community. 

My career in the construction industry includes plan reviewing, estimating construction costs, project scheduling, project managing and acting as crew foreman.  These are valuable skills to guide our county forward. 

I volunteer for the Illinois Railway Museum here in McHenry County for the Thomas the Tank Engine event, Happy Holiday Train as well as track construction for the museum. In my younger days, I coached and was a referee for youth soccer. In addition, I coached and umpired softball.  

New issues occur with aging that require actions. I take family and friends to doctor appointments, have helped with in-home health care, and have checked in with neighbors for safety. McHenry County has a vulnerable population. The County needs to have the resources for this growing issue. I understand the needs and will be an effective guardian.
