SERVICES
What I do.
Three ways campaigns hire me. Or all of them at once.
Campaign Strategy
Message, targeting, budget allocation, and the plan that ties them together. I've worked races up and down the ballot, and I've been on the ballot myself.
- MESSAGE
- TARGETING
- BUDGETS
- GOTV
Polling and Research
Surveys designed, fielded, and analyzed through American Polling and Research, the firm I co-founded. Real methodology, clean crosstabs, and briefings you can act on the same week.
- SURVEYS
- CROSSTABS
- BRIEFINGS
Digital, Data and Technology
Websites live in days, compliant SMS at scale, fundraising and donation compliance, clean voter data, and custom software when off-the-shelf won't cut it. Everything talks to everything else.

ABOUT
From real estate to running my own race.
Most campaigns are run by people who understand politics but not technology. I learned the work from veteran Ohio operators, then taught myself to code so I could move faster than the people they were used to hiring.
I’m 26, based in Youngstown, Ohio, and I’ve spent the last four years building campaign infrastructure for races up and down the ballot. I’ve shipped production software (including AmericanElectionHQ, which covers candidate races in every state), taught myself to build and run my own production server infrastructure at home, and in 2026 I ran for and won my own seat on the Mahoning County Republican Central Committee.
When campaigns hire me, they get a developer, an operator, and someone who’s been on the ballot.
