About Me

These are crucial times for Ohio. Talk to young professionals in our major cities and you'll see what I mean. Many believe there is no future in our state and that in order to advance their careers, they will eventually have to leave Ohio.Decisions that are made today will determine what Ohio looks like in the year 2020. I envision a state that is considered an attractive employment destination thanks to a flourishing knowledge-based economy, a thriving cultural life, vibrant cities, and a good quality of life where our children can grow to be healthy, safe and strong.The wrong decisions today can lead to a very different scenario by 2020. Our population could drop dramatically, taking with it the best and brightest minds and leaving a waning economy. Our cities could become hollowed out. And Ohioans around the nation could increasingly view their state as backward and irrelevant.For all Ohioans, reviving our economy is a top priority. For those who have a stake in Ohio's future, it's the only priority.For our generation, no matter our party or our place in life, building a Whole New Ohio is a priority worth the effort.
