My passion is working with cities and towns on issues of economic development, land use and engineering - particularly those places that are seeking answers as to why the standard solutions have failed to create prosperity for them America's approach to growth has transformed cities rich in history, ingenuity and character into places that are financially fragile and socially frayed. I want to restore the greatness of our cities and towns by reconnecting these places with their historical development pattern. We need to bring back the basic principles of financial resiliency and the importance of community in the measure of prosperity. I live in my hometown of Brainerd, Minnesota, with my wife, two daughters and two Samoyed dogs. I love playing music, reading and the cheering for the Minnesota Twins.
