Why I’m Running: My Commitment to Manchester Ward 7
Friends, neighbors, and fellow Granite Staters,
Today, with gratitude and humility, I am proud to announce my candidacy for New Hampshire State Representative, representing Hillsborough District 26, Manchester Ward 7.
My family did not end up in New Hampshire by accident. We chose New Hampshire.
My wife, Kara, and I chose to raise our children here because we believe in what this state represents: strong communities, freedom, opportunity, personal responsibility, and a place where families can build a better future.
My journey has taught me never to take the American Dream for granted. I came to this country with hope, worked hard, built businesses, became part of this community, and found our home here in the Granite State.
New Hampshire has given my family opportunity, and I believe we have a responsibility to preserve that opportunity for our children and future generations.
The principles that guide me are simple:
When families are strong, communities become stronger.
When businesses can grow, workers and families succeed.
When parents are involved, children do better.
When government listens to the people, New Hampshire works better.
I am running because Concord needs representatives who listen first, work hard, and never forget the people they serve.
Over the coming months, I will be knocking on doors throughout Ward 7, not just asking for votes, but asking a simple question:
“What do you need from your government, and how can I better represent you?”
As your State Representative, I will focus on:
Keeping New Hampshire affordable
Protecting the New Hampshire Advantage
Supporting families and educational opportunity
Helping small businesses grow
Promoting safe neighborhoods
Keeping government accountable to the people
This campaign is not about a title. It is about service.
It is about protecting the state we love and making sure the New Hampshire our children inherit is even stronger than the one we found.
I look forward to meeting you, listening to you, and earning your trust and your vote.
Let’s get to work.
