Biography

30-year Township resident and City of Langley Councillor since 2022. An independent voice who asks questions before the vote and works with everyone. I'll push for fiscal balance, growth that pays its real cost, a clear debt policy, public safety and open, accountable government.

Patti and I have called Langley home for 30 years. We raised our family here. We built our lives here.This community matters to us.

For those same 30 years I've been serving it as a pastor,a business executive, and a community advocate.

I've managed budgets, led organizations, and understand what's needed to make things work.

I know what responsible management looks like — and I know when it's missing.

I also bring the experience of a sitting City of Langley Councillor , with a firsthand understanding of good governance, transparency, and accountability.

Langley is growing - Growth is good.

It means families are choosing Langley, businesses are investing here, and opportunity is expanding.

But growth doesn't become healthy by accident. It requires responsible planning, sustainable infrastructure, predictable development expectations, and strong local services.

It has to remain affordable - for everyone; for young families trying to put down roots, and for seniors on fixed incomes trying to stay in the community they helped build.

The Township is facing real pressures that are beginning to compound - rapid growth, major infrastructure needs, SkyTrain planning, housing affordability, and development uncertainty.

We're carrying major legacy commitments and increasing debt loads while long-promised amenities are still waiting and the fundamentals: roads, utilities, parks, and basic services receive secondary service.

That's why I'm running.

Langley Township needs an independent, experienced, trusted voice on Council - someone who knows how local government works, asks the right questions, and keeps the focus on residents.

I'm running to help ensure Langley grows in a way that is responsible, sustainable, affordable and rooted in the needs of the people who call it home - now and 50 years from now.
