Dad of 2 | Husband | Pennsylvanian | 20 Yr Marine | TOPGUN Fighter Pilot Defended our freedoms abroad. Now running for Congress in #PA10 to defend them at home
Joined August 2023
As a Marine & TOPGUN Fighter Pilot, I spent 20 years defending democracy overseas. We need more of that at home, right now. That’s why I’m running for Congress in #PA10. To defeat Jan 6th ringleader Scott Perry & deliver for hard-working PA families like the one I grew up in.

Scott Perry has failed Pennsylvanians. I am the former Marine and Top Gun pilot running to defeat this insurrectionist and flip Pennsylvania's 10th blue. We have launched our new ad airing in this district. Check it out, spread the word, and let's take back this seat!

It doesn’t matter what party you are a member of, service to our country must come first. When Scott Perry incited the January 6th insurrection, he abandoned our nation. Pennsylvania’s 10th is winnable, and this November, I will defeat him.

I served in the Marines for 20 years. I will be the first to tell you that Tommy Tuberville is actively putting our national security at risk. It is shameful. It must be stopped.
NBC News confirms: Republican Tommy Tuberville won't lift his blockade of military nominations — even amid the Israel-Hamas conflict.

The number one issue for Pennsylvanians is getting rid of Scott Perry and having real representation in Congress. We have so much work to do, and I’m proud of the coalition we’ve built thus far. We’re only getting started—we will remove this insurrectionist from office.

I defended freedom abroad for 20 years as a TOPGUN F-35 Stealth Fighter Pilot. Now I'm working to defend it at home — as a Democrat running for Congress in Pennsylvania's 10th District to defeat far-right extremist and January 6th ringleader Scott Perry.

A lawsuit has been filed to keep Scott Perry off the ballot for helping incite the violent January 6th insurrection. Perry tried to attack our democracy. He failed. Whether or not he is removed, I will restore leadership to our district this November.

Tommy Tuberville spent 9 months hurting our military readiness to bolster his political career. Today, he lost. As a 20 year Marine, I'll be the first to say that what Tuberville did put himself above our country. It was wrong. It was dishonest. He must be held accountable.

On the eve of the anniversary of the January 6th insurrection, remember that Scott Perry is currently fighting with Special Counsel Jack Smith in court over the release of his text messages. Pennsylvania deserves a leader, not an extremist representing us in Congress.

Scott Perry led the insurrection on January 6, 2021. He then had his phone seized by the FBI. Now, he wants to shut down our government. Perry has no business serving in the building he tried to burn down.

Despite Scott Perry's obstruction, the House has finally passed additional aid to Ukraine at a time of need for our ally overseas. While Perry auditions to be Putin's towel boy in Congress, I am ready to continue fighting for democracy at home and abroad.

Scott Perry just voted for Jim Jordan to be the next Speaker. This is unsurprising. Both Perry and Jordan tried to tear down our democracy on January 6, 2021. Pennsylvania deserves better. Next year, I will defeat Perry and flip #PA10 blue.

Scott Perry is Donald Trump’s water boy in Congress. He has spread the big lie, fought against protections for women, and now is playing politics over using federal dollars to rebuild the Francis Scott Key Bridge. He has no business representing us.

Tommy Tuberville's blockade of nominees is not just reckless, it's dangerous. As a Marine of 20 years and a former TopGun pilot, I know this firsthand. I refuse to sit back and watch Tuberville be enabled by extremists like Scott Perry. It's why I'm running to defeat him.

Thanks to Republican obstruction, we currently do not have a confirmed Ambassador to Israel. This is what happens when you put politics ahead of our national interests. It’s time to confirm Jack Lew immediately.

Scott Perry’s vote against the bipartisan infrastructure bill was a vote against Pennsylvania families. We have real problems in our district. When you see money coming to fix our roads and bridges remember that Perry opposed it all.

Scott Perry helped incited the 2020 election and just voted to protect George Santos, a man who lied and defrauded Americans. Back home in Pennsylvania, we won’t forget this vote from Perry. We will remove him from office.

I served in the Marines, supporting NATO abroad, while protecting our allies from threats like the ones Donald Trump just endorsed. Scott Perry's refusal to denounce this demagogue is unAmerica. We must reject MAGA extremism wherever it presents itself.
Trump: One of the presidents of a big country stood up and said, Well, sir, if we don't pay and were attacked by Russia, will you protect us? I said. No I would not protect you. In fact, I would encourage them to do whatever the hell they want.
