Tell us about yourself and why you got involved politically 

I've been married to my wife, Tenille, for 23 years. We have three children, aged 17,15 and 12. We moved to Moose Jaw in 2005, and I practiced law with Chow McLeod for 18 years until I began serving in this role. 

During that time, I spent two terms on the Prairie South School Board from 2012 to 2020, and I chaired the board for two or three years during that period.
