A Republican, he was elected in November 2016 from the 70th district of the Missouri House of Representatives, served from January 2017 to January 2019, then was elected in November 2022 from the 103rd district. The 70th district included parts of Saint Charles and Saint Louis counties, spanning between Chesterfield and Florissant.
