Why Jeff

Loyalist-Cataraqui Deserves Better

District 2 needs a councillor who shows up, returns calls, and treats residents like neighbours, not file numbers.

"Success looks like a neighbour telling me their kid just opened their first business downtown. Success looks like a tradesperson who can afford to stay in the city they grew up in."

About Jeff

A Kingstonian, Plain and Simple

For more than 13 years, Jeff has proudly called Kingston home, but his connection to this community goes back much further. Growing up just outside the city, Kingston has always been the place where he worked, shopped, attended events, and built lasting relationships. His commitment to the community has included serving as Secretary of the Parent Council at Cataraqui Woods Elementary School, working alongside parents, teachers, and staff to support students and strengthen school engagement.

As Director of the national team-building program Rock the Stars, Jeff guided corporate groups through activities designed to challenge, motivate, and strengthen teamwork. As a JUNO Adistrict-winning musician and SOCAN Adistrict-winning songwriter, he has collaborated with people from all walks of life, learning the value of creativity, communication, and perseverance. In recent years, he became a Journeyman Electrician and has worked on many of the homes being built in Kingston's growing neighbourhoods, giving him a unique, hands-on perspective on the opportunities and challenges facing the city.

Whether on a construction site, volunteering in schools, leading teams, or performing on stage, Jeff has always believed in bringing people together, solving problems, and contributing to a stronger community. Those are the same values he will bring to City Council.

Why I'm Running

It's Time for a Change

District 2 – Loyalist-Cataraqui is one of Kingston's most vibrant and rapidly growing communities. We are fortunate to have beautiful parks and green spaces, excellent schools, thriving local businesses, and welcoming neighbourhoods. At the same time, our community faces important challenges, including managing growth, improving transportation and infrastructure, maintaining affordability, supporting local businesses, and ensuring residents continue to have access to the services and amenities they need.

One of Jeff's greatest strengths is his ability to listen carefully to the concerns, ideas, and experiences of others. As your City Councillor, his priority will be to ensure that residents of District 2 have a strong voice at City Hall, hearing what matters most to you and bringing those concerns fordistrict to Council, advocating for practical solutions that reflect the needs and priorities of our community.

This campaign is not just about electing a City Councillor. It is about ensuring that every resident has a voice in the decisions that shape our community. Jeff is committed to being accessible, approachable, and accountable, both during the campaign and if elected to Council. Please reach out, share your thoughts, and join the conversation. Together, we can build on the strengths of District 2, address the challenges ahead, and create a community that continues to be a great place to live, work, and raise a family.

What Jeff Stands For

Six Commitments to District 2

01

A City Hall That Helps

Jeff believes City Hall should be a resource, not a roadblock. Residents should be able to get clear answers, practical guidance, and timely help when dealing with permits, bylaws, local services, or neighbourhood concerns.

02

Supporting Local Business

Kingston should be easier to start in, build in, and invest in. Jeff supports a practical, common-sense approach to local business, home-based work, trades, young entrepreneurs, and residents trying to build something in their community.

03

Getting the Basics Right

Roads, sidewalks, parks, lighting, snow clearing, traffic concerns, and neighbourhood upkeep matter. Jeff will advocate for District 2's fair share and push City Hall to focus on the everyday services residents rely on.

04

Safe, Strong Neighbourhoods

A strong city starts with safe, cared-for neighbourhoods. Jeff will support safer streets, better public spaces, responsive service, and practical solutions that help families, seniors, workers, and local residents feel proud of where they live.

05

Accountability and Hard Work

City councillor is a paid public job, and Jeff believes it should be treated like one. He will show up, listen, respond, follow through, and keep residents informed with regular District 2 updates. District 2 deserves a councillor who knows our streets, listens to our neighbourhoods, and fights for our fair share at City Hall.

06

Affordability and Smart Growth

Loyalist-Cataraqui is a growing neighbourhood. Jeff will advocate for responsible growth that keeps the area affordable for the families and workers who already call it home, supporting local businesses that lower costs for residents, and pushing for housing development that meets real community needs.
