There are a bunch of reasons I decided to run for office. I'll share the two main ones.

The first reason started when I began coaching youth soccer. I coached for no reason other than the fact that no one else volunteered and I wanted the third grade boys to be able to play. Coaching has been fun, but one thing I didn't expect is how much closer to the town community I would become. As I became closer to the community, I felt a desire to give more of myself to it.

The second reason has to do with the recent state and federal elections. My wife and I have a recurring conversation where we ask each other "Are these really the best candidates there are?" Our choices are only as good as the people that step up and run. I feel bad complaining about things if I don't also have a solution. So, I decided to do something about it.

There's a lot to running a campaign and I'm new to all of it. I plan to post on the progress made, what works, and what doesn't. Hopefully, this might inspire a few more people to run for office in their town or city.

The election is on May 12, 2025. Let's get to work.
