Governing Principles
Layton is the largest city in Davis County and I work to ensure it remains the best place to live, work, recreate, and raise a family. Municipal government is the government closest to the people it represents. Consequently, it must be people-focused and data-driven. I strive to make the best decisions for your family and mine. It is an honor to represent you on the Layton City Council.
Bio

Governing Principles
I am married to my wife Kayla and we have four children. We love Layton and have lived here our whole married life. Professionally, I am an attorney, working primarily with the elderly, those with special needs, and our wartime veterans. My job allows me to interact with many of our community's most vulnerable, heroic, and forgotten members and I am better for it.

Fiscal Conservatism

Fiscal Conservatism
Unlike the federal government, a municipal government like Layton cannot print its own money. Layton's budget must be centered in reality—just as you and I run our own household budgets. I will seek to improve necessary city services while remaining vigilant in defending the sacred nature of taxpayer funds so that they are never wasted. We must only spend what we bring in.
Public Safety
Fiscal Conservatism
Fiscal Conservatism
Government’s first duty is to protect its people. And the day-to-day security of our community begins at the local level. I vow to ensure that Layton City is always at the forefront of public safety by fully funding, training, and supporting our police officers in ways that keep our families protected, our men and women in uniform safe, and bad actors off the streets.
Water
Good Governance

For far too long our water policy has been detached from the realities of our dry, semi-arid desert climate. I will continue to steer our policy conversations and ordinances toward commonplace conservation to assure that our kids and grandkids have the water that they need to thrive.

Layton City exists to deliver necessary services to the residents it serves. I work to assure the City’s water, sewer, streets, police, fire, parks, and other utilities and services are adequately funded, efficiently trained and maintained, and ready for citizen use whenever they are called upon
