## About

I am running for Vancouver Public Schools Board of Directors, Position 5. If elected I will bring the same passion to this position as I have in my life as a husband, father, and business owner. All three of my children are students in the Vancouver Public Schools; I am a true stakeholder.

I am also a business owner and certified public accountant (CPA) with 16+ years of experience working with budgets and finances. I will apply my experience in helping to support a responsible budget that meets the needs of the community, the staff, and most importantly, the students. I want what is best for all students and believe that we need to continue to attract and retain the best teachers and staff we can find as they are working hard to make this an award-winning school district.

VPS has a high degree of variability in socioeconomic status between individual schools. This can, and should, be utilized to provide outstanding opportunities for lower income students in our district. Educational opportunities are one of the best ways to escape the poverty cycle.
