A Proven Organizer for Liberty
I've spent more than two decades building the Libertarian Party at every level: from local grassroots organizing to serving in state and national roles. Today, I put that experience to work every day for Texans as Vice Chair of the Libertarian Party of Texas.
I live in San Antonio, where I work as an IT manager and systems administrator. I currently serve as Chair of the Bexar County Libertarian Party (LPBexar) and Chair of the Libertarian National Convention Committee. Previously, I chaired the San Bernardino County Libertarian Party in California after serving on its executive committee, and led a large homeowners' association representing over 5,000 residents.
Before my professional and political work in Texas, I served in the U.S. Army with deployments to both Iraq and Afghanistan. That experience reinforced my commitment to peace, limited government, and real accountability for those who wield power in our name.

Transparency. Effectiveness. Accountability.
A leader should do more than hold a title. The job is to keep the organization honest, focused, and productive.
Transparency
Let Members See What's Really Happening
Members deserve to see how decisions are made so they can trust the outcomes.
- Support public reporting on major SLEC votes.
- Publish clear summaries of budgets and contracts.
- Default to openness, limiting closed sessions.
Effectiveness
Turn Principles into Results
Focus internal systems so volunteers spend more time on outreach and less on chaos.
- Use data to prioritize where we recruit and lobby.
- Standardize best practices across Texas counties.
- Measure outcomes, not just social media posts.
Accountability
Serve the Members First
Officers serve at the pleasure of the members, taking direct responsibility when challenges arise.
- Regular reporting from officers to SLEC and members.
- Clear expectations for committees and departments.
- Follow-through on commitments with visible milestones.
Three Priorities for Texas
Focusing on three strategic priorities: Membership Growth, Running Candidates, and Legislative Action.
Membership Growth
More members mean more candidates, more donations, more volunteers, and more leverage in Austin and in our communities.
- Modernize onboarding and follow-up for new signups and donors.
- Use targeted outreach to grow in underrepresented regions.
- Align state and local membership efforts so activists aren't working at cross-purposes.
Running Candidates
The Libertarian Party exists to put liberty on the ballot. We need more candidates, better prepared, and better supported.
- Help build a predictable candidate recruitment calendar each cycle.
- Coordinate candidate training with our county affiliates and issue coalitions.
- Prioritize wins: focus resources on winnable local races and strategic legislative contests.
Legislative Action
Texans should feel our presence in the legislature, even when we don't yet hold the seats. That means being organized, persistent, and visible.
- Strengthen LPTexas' legislative tracking and response so we can mobilize quickly.
- Coordinate testimony, call campaigns, and coalition work around key bills.
- Highlight legislators who advance or attack liberty and make sure our members know.
Plan as Vice Chair & Accountability
Key Action Areas
- Audit our systems: Continually review membership, candidate support, and operational processes.
- Improve communication: Work with officers to deliver consistent updates after every SLEC meeting.
- Support county growth: Help local affiliates adopt battle-tested tools for events and recruitment.
- Back the SLEC: Keep initiatives moving and ensure resources are spent where impact is highest.
How You Can Hold Me Accountable
- Ask questions: Inquire about votes, budgets, committee business, and party priorities.
- Invite me: Invite me to your county meetings; I will attend in-person or virtually whenever possible.
- Expect clear reports: Count on timely reporting after major conventions and state decisions.
- Give feedback: Tell me directly when something isn't working so we can fix it.
