I'm running as an independent-minded Forward Party candidate (District 53 - East Lehi/AF), to bring back innovative and respectful policy dialogue, and reduce 2-party polarization and dysfunction.
Check out my story below, and the policy Hot Takes page above.
"Not Left. Not Right. Forward!"


John is an entrepreneur, family guy, and former Marine who never expected to get involved in politics.
The political environment has become too polarized. Join our movement to Bridge the Divide and bring unity back to our state and country.
Destructive partisanship needs to stop, and the people need to be heard and acknowledged again.
We can rebuild trust in Utah politics by focusing on facts, truth, and problem-solving. Too many leaders are focused on winning partisan fights rather than solving real problems.
Let's bring back the values that make Utah strong: checks and balances, strong families, clean air and water, and respect for one another.
With trust as our foundation, there's no problem too big for Utahns to solve together.
Current State
- The two-party system is failing us.
- Our representatives no longer accurately represent Utah County values.
- Americans have forgotten how to trust and work with each other.
Desired Future State
- Healthy dialogue that respects others' dignity.
- Evidence-based, innovative problem solving.
- Robust checks and balances in our government.
About John
- Married 35 years and raised 7 kids in Lehi.
- Marine Corps infantry veteran.
- 25-year career in tech entrepreneurship.
