Challenges

City governance is best when the council stays collegial and non-partisan, while focusing on the blocking and tackling. Politicized & special-interest agendas threaten our small-town charm. I understand how tough it is to afford a great life here and worrying about our community’s future. As a father of four and 15-year Westerville resident, I share your concerns.

EXPERIENCE

For 15 years, I’ve led Social Firm, a digital marketing agency, helping businesses grow with proactive listening and smart solutions. My annual fundraiser, the Erney Tourney, has raised over $130,000 for charities like AngelWorks, supporting families with children with cancer. With integrity, I’ll be your guide.

Vision for Westerville

I’m running for Westerville City Council because I believe our city thrives when we stay focused on what matters most: listening to residents, providing excellent services, and keeping politics out of the spotlight. For 15 years, I’ve built my business, raised my family, and invested my life here. As a father of four, I want a Westerville where families flourish, small businesses thrive, and costs remain manageable.

We don’t need radical change - we need evolution, not revolution. I will work to strengthen safety services, revitalize our parks, roads, trails, and uptown district, and champion smart fiscal policies. I will guard our traditions, protect religious freedoms, and ensure our council stays focused on the practical work of running a great city.

This is my home. Serving the 40,000 people who call Westerville home is my opportunity to preserve our excellence, meet our growing needs, and keep our city united, strong, and thriving for generations to come.

Together for a Safe,
Thriving Westerville
