About Me
I live in Key West with my wife and kids, and I work as a project manager for Keystar Construction. Most of my time is spent managing public-sector projects throughout the Keys — schools, city work, infrastructure.
I try to stay involved in the community where I can. I volunteer with Special Olympics and serve as a Guardian ad Litem, and I’ve recently joined the Key West Ambassadors Academy to stay connected and learn more about how the city works.
I’m not trying to be flashy. I just care about doing good work, helping where I can, and being someone people here can rely on.
How I Help
I try to be the kind of person people can count on—whether that’s helping a neighbor, showing up for a local cause, or just being steady when things get hectic.
Around town, that might mean volunteering at an event, lending a hand on a community project, or helping someone think through their next step. I don’t need to be the loudest voice in the room—I just believe in doing my part and doing it well.
Key West runs on relationships, and I do my best to build mine with care.

What I'm Working On
I’m currently working full-time in construction management here in Key West, helping to deliver projects that matter to this community. Outside of work, I stay involved through volunteering and by showing up where I can make a difference.
My wife is a local veterinarian, and together we’ve been dreaming up a future space that brings our passions together—a welcoming place that supports animal care, community gathering, and long-term housing for people who live and work in the Keys.
For now, we’re just taking steady steps forward—getting to know the right people, showing up for the right reasons, and putting our energy into things that can grow into something meaningful.
