Public service and safety have been my life’s calling, including six years as Oceanside’s Fire Chief. As a Navy veteran, I understand the needs of active-duty and veteran families. Oceanside residents since 1988, my wife and I raised four children and have 12 grandchildren. A safe and thriving Oceanside for residents and visitors is my highest priority.
​
The City of Oceanside began with the vision of becoming a destination. Guided by real experience and real leadership, O’side will continue to be a destination to live, work, and play.
