Mike’s public service began with his efforts to save St. Patrick’s Church in Leetonia from closure. He went on to serve eight years on the Leetonia School Board, leading the district to financial stability and academic success. He then served nearly two terms in the Ohio Senate, representing Mahoning, Columbiana, and Carroll counties, before winning a special election in 2024 to represent Ohio’s 6th Congressional District.
A dedicated husband and father, Mike lives in Salem with his wife, Kelly, and their two children. His mission remains clear: to fight for policies that strengthen families, support small businesses, and revitalize the Ohio River Valley.
