Why Me?
My wife and I are committed to living here for the rest of our lives, and I want Cumberland to be a place where we can all thrive as we age. It should also be a place where our children can live, learn, work, and prosper.
Over the past seventeen years, I’ve actively engaged in various volunteer and community service roles, just like many of you. Since 2024, I’ve had the privilege of serving on Council, and I ask for your support to build on that learning and experience as I continue working for you and the future of our community.
Cumberland holds a special place in our hearts. It’s a unique community, rich in spirit, and while it means something different to each of us, we all share a common desire to preserve and enhance what makes it so special.

I’m using Facebook to publish news and updates. I believe that residents deserve to know who I am and what I care about. Sharing stories from my political life gives you insight into the values that I bring to decision-making at the Council table.
If you use Facebook, please Follow my page to get regular updates. If, like many, you don’t use it, you can still read most of my posts on my News Page.
Tuesday we were back at the Council table after a short break in August. The work is rewarding, challenging, detailed and demanding. But most of all, it is collaborative.
As I dove into 300+ pages of reading in the week before, I’m reminded of the work all of Council do to prepare and understand, the leadership of our Mayor, and the work we do at other tables like CVRD, VIRL and more.
Then there is the effort and care that Village staff bring to their work, the citizen committees, non-profits, businesses, and residents that make this all happen. It all comes down to the people who bring skills and experience to build relationships, understanding and, eventually, a better community. I’m grateful for each and every one.
Nomination papers are in! The two years since my (by)election have gone by so fast and it’s been a challenging and rewarding opportunity to serve the village I love. Now I’m excited at the chance to build on that work and connect with many of you over the coming weeks. Election day is October 17!
