About me.
I've been a Marengo resident my whole life. Aside from a brief stint at college, I've always come back — because this is home. Over the years I've worked in restaurants, CNC manufacturing, and Medicaid eligibility and enrollment. I know what it's like for working families just starting out, because that's exactly where my wife and I are — raising our daughter in Ward 4, with a second child on the way.
We're not passing through. We're planting roots here, and I want to help make Marengo the kind of place we're proud to raise our kids in.
I also help run Beautify Marengo — a volunteer group that does everything from downtown street cleanups to building the planters you see in the city center. When you're helping lead something like that, you see firsthand what happens when a community shows up for itself.
