Everybody In

I’m running for Mayor because

Dubuque needs strong leadership at this critical time. I believe together, as Dubuquers, we can bring everybody in and realize our shared vision of building a sustainable and resilient city and an inclusive and equitable community.

It’s time for leaders of my generation to step up and lead.

We stand on big shoulders in Dubuque. From this vantage point, we can dream big and create new opportunities through responsible investments in our city’s growth.

I love this city where I was born and raised,

and where my wife, Jennifer and I have chosen to raise our sons, Sam and Andrew. I want to make sure Dubuque is a city where all generations can live a full life. That’s why I spent the last 11 years of my career teaching the leaders of tomorrow at Loras College, and why I have worked hard to serve the Dubuque community.

When we have everybody in there are no limits to what we can accomplish.

That’s what this campaign is about

and that is my pledge to you as your next mayor. I would be honored to earn your vote on Election Day, November 2nd, 2021.

My Plan

Millwork District Dubuque

01. Build Community

We can keep building a thriving community for the future that is the envy of every city in Iowa. We can be a community that is true to tradition and open to change, with arts, culture, business, diversity, and life that draws people from all corners of our country and beyond. 

02. Create Opportunity for All

As we celebrate our successes, we must also address our challenges.  Too many of our neighbors live under the weight of poverty and struggle to access opportunities to thrive.

At the same time, too many of our community’s businesses struggle to find and retain the workforce we need for our future.  I believe we have what it takes right here at home to solve these challenges.

03.Secure Our Future

As your Mayor, I will lead with balance and careful thought.  I believe leaders must have the vision to make improvements in our community that not only benefit us now, but for generations to come, all while keeping our city’s financial future secure.
