PUTTING MY EXPERIENCE TO WORK
23 YEARS & STILL HERE
Mary and I bought the Hotel Frisco in 2002 with an SBA loan and a lot of optimism. We planned to stay a few years. Twenty-three years later we are still here. What began as one small hotel became Summit Mountain Rentals, a business built on the belief that doing right by your employees and your community are the same thing. Today we manage properties across Summit County, including Frisco, employ more than 50 people, and invest in employee housing. You cannot build something lasting in a mountain town if the people who make it run cannot afford to stay.
REALISTIC GOALS
When I served on the Frisco Planning Commission I saw how good intentions meet real constraints, how decisions that look simple from the street look very different from inside the room. That experience changed how I think about government and what it can realistically do.
I LOVE LEARNING
I have two undergraduate degrees in Mathematics and Economics and I am finishing a Master's in Management at the London School of Economics. I love learning because it exposes me to broader thinking that I can apply locally. It sharpens how I already think. I see how housing affects labor, how tourism creates both opportunity and pressure, and how growth decisions ripple throughout our lives. I have spent 23 years watching those connections play out in real time, in my business, and in this town.
Mary is beside me in all we do. It is our shared belief Frisco is worth the work which has has kept us here for 23 years.
I am running for Frisco Town Council because it is my turn to do the work.
