EDUCATION: A father and Grandfather, raising a family provides a education. Over forty years as a private business owner in the Commercial Construction Industry and several other small businesses including manufacturing. Running your own business is a education that you are unable to receive from a college.

OCCUPATION: Born in Great falls MT. Retired in Saint Regis

What qualities make you the best candidate for this position? I spent my adult life as a business owner. Not being employed by a government agency, affords me the ability to understand the publics concerns more clearly. When spending your own money meeting budgets and deadlines ,you become more accustomed to being conservative in the process. My wife and I are funding our Campaign exclusively so we don’t have the optics of being beholden to Special interest groups. My traditional conservative foundation, will lead me to look at every decision I make for the residents without influence from others in Helena. I have been endorsed by (Montanas for Limited Government) because of my belief in limited Government for the Resident’s of the great state of Montana.
