Today, on Veterans Day, I’m proud to recognize and thank all those who have worn the uniform and served our great nation.

As a U.S. Navy veteran, I know the meaning of service, sacrifice, and commitment to something bigger than yourself. I’m grateful for everyone who has answered that call, and especially for the families who stand behind them.

To all who have served and those who continue to serve, thank you. Your service matters, and you are not forgotten.

Happy Veterans Day! 🇺🇸

Happy Birthday to the United States Marines!! Even though I’m a Navy guy, I have a Marine in the family so we should all play nice :)

**There were no threats made to me by my Marine friends that if I didn’t post a birthday message today my health might be compromised 😅**

SEMPER FIDELIS!!

As we get closer to 2027 and the election for Snohomish County Sheriff gets going, I want you to know I will always put public safety above highly paid administrators. This new position actually takes deputies off of the street in order to fill this position. How can a Sheriff justify adding a highly paid administrator in the middle of a staffing crisis? It can’t be justified and you need to know that I will reverse this decision that the current Sheriff has made in the interest of your public safety.

Looks like I'm no longer the only one talking about this highly paid administrator being added to the Sheriff's Office in the middle of a staffing crisis and trying to keep cops on the street.

Mark my words....I will keep public safety first in everything I do. Not highly paid managers to manage less people.

There are distinct differences in our approach to public safety between the current Sheriff and myself. One of those will have major impacts on our community in regard to the fentanyl epidemic.

While the current Sheriff is CUTTING resources that are assigned to deal directly with all of the issues surrounding the fentanyl epidemic (homelessness, open air drug use, trespassing, getting people treatment), I will do the opposite for our community when elected in 2027. We cannot take any steps backwards in this area and I believe our community demands we deal with these issues.

The current Sheriff is CUTTING a position that deals directly with street-level fentanyl issues and she is CUTTING a position that deals with high-level fentanyl and other complex drug investigations.

My position as a candidate for Sheriff is that our businesses and our communities that live, work and play in these harder hit areas of Snohomish County deserve appropriate enforcement of these fentanyl related crimes and outreach work by social workers to get people into treatment and I would not be cutting either of these positions. There has been a lot of progress made in this area and my concern is that we seem to be taking a step backwards in time, while nearly all of public safety is looking to the future and how they can appropriately partner with the businesses and community to make it safer for all.

My heart goes out to the Spokane County Sheriff’s Office today. Please keep them, their families and the community in your prayers.

Get your ballots in and vote! Great practice for the 2027 race for Snohomish County Sheriff!

You would think after decades of experience and fancy leadership classes that this type of approach would be a thing of the past. I can promise you it’s not and is very current.

It is time to take the Sheriff’s Office into 2027 with a leadership style that reflects current day and this generation of public safety professionals.

Our deputies and our community demand it. Public safety demands it.

If you ordered a hoodie at our kickoff because we ran out, I apologize it took a bit but they will go out this week! I am so happy with how these turned out. We are working on a system for orders and shipping and it won’t be long but not quite there yet! Look for an announcement soon. This is gonna be fun!
