What drove you to seek public office?
Our children are not guinea pigs. We must prevent radical extremism and ideological indoctrination from entering the Marlboro School System.

Marlboro is a diverse and family-oriented community where parents play a vital role in shaping their children’s education. Let’s ensure that our schools remain focused on academic excellence, free from outside political agendas, and responsive to the values of our town.

What sets you apart from the other candidates?
My entrepreneurial background and global business experience distinguish me.

With over 20 years in the telecommunications industry, I’ve collaborated with top corporations worldwide. This journey has provided me with valuable cultural insights and economic knowledge, equipping me to engage effectively with people from all backgrounds.

What do you see as the biggest issue facing Marlboro, and how will you resolve it?
The biggest issue facing Marlboro is the influence of government mandates and extreme organizations that do not align with our community’s values.

A strong Board of Education with grounded, conservative principles is essential as the primary safeguard to ensure that inappropriate content stays out of our schools.

My goal is to protect our children’s education by promoting transparency, parental involvement, and a focus on core academics.

What are past accomplishments or experiences that make you qualified for this position?
This may sound corny but my three greatest accomplishments are being a loving husband, a caring father, and raising two teenagers.

These roles define the majority of my life’s success and give me firsthand experience with the challenges parents and families face today. They also shape my commitment to ensuring that our schools provide the best possible environment for our children to thrive.

Name one thing about Marlboro that always makes you smile.
The incredible people who volunteer in so many ways to support our community.
