I was born in Portland and attended Westbrook schools through 4th grade. I then moved to Des Moines, Iowa with my mom, step-father, and younger sister where I found my passion for politics by witnessing the Iowa Caucuses first hand.

While living in Iowa, I always knew that I wanted to get back home to Maine. Upon graduating from high school, I returned to Maine and attended Bowdoin College and the University of Maine School of Law. After law school I moved to Portland and became the in-house counsel for a local brewery where I was able to live and work in the city that I love. Currently, I am in private practice with a focus on municipal law.

I come from an incredibly loving and supportive family. I have four siblings and am a proud uncle to three nieces and six nephews.
