PRIORITIES
STRONG COURTS, SAFE COMMUNITIES
Upholding the Constitution and Rule of Law
The foundation of justice rests on strict adherence to the Constitution and Ohio law. Citizens deserve judges who make decisions rooted in principle, not politics.
Fairness, Impartiality, and Accountability
Justice requires both compassion and strength. Offenders must be held accountable while victims and their families are treated with dignity.

A PROVEN CONSERVATIVE
Warren County deserves judges who reflect the values of our community—judges who are strong, ethical, and unwavering in their commitment to fairness. Having devoted my career to serving the people of Warren County, first as an assistant prosecutor and now as a magistrate, I’ve always been guided by the principles of accountability, justice, and respect for the rule of law.
Our courts must remain fair, impartial, and consistent. That means protecting the rights of all who come before the bench, holding offenders accountable, and ensuring that justice is never influenced by outside pressures. I am committed to applying the law faithfully, upholding the Constitution, and maintaining the trust our citizens deserve from their judiciary.
