Meet Calvin

Calvin knows what it’s like to live and grow up in the district.

Calvin attended our local schools, Abbott Loop Elementary, Hanshew Middle School, and Service High School, and earned his bachelor’s degree in accounting from the University of Alaska Anchorage. Calvin has since purchased the home he grew up in and has started a family with his wife Heather. Calvin has experience running a small business and was a proud member of the Anchorage Chamber of Commerce and the Abbott Loop Community Council boards before being elected to public office in 2020.

Calvin values and prioritizes community. Whether he’s picking up trash on a walk around the district or organizing a neighborhood food drive during a time of need. Calvin works to improve the community around him. He volunteers his time at multiple nonprofits, is a regular blood donor, and works to be a leader in his community.

Calvin’s Values

Integrity

We need to do what’s right for Alaska. For the past 40 years, oil revenues have taken us on an unstable ride. When revenues go up, we overspend, and when revenues go down, we feel the pain. It’s time we take a new look at this approach and work together to find a better way forward, one that is sustainable and responsible, meets our obligations to care for our elders, educate our young, and adequately fund public safety.

Respect

The views of all Alaskans matter, and we have to ensure everyone’s voices are heard. I’ll continue to work across the aisle to represent you and your family. After all, these issues aren’t about politics, they’re about people. That’s reason enough to work together and do what’s right. There’s no challenge too great for Alaskans who work together.

Community

The future of Alaska lies in our people and in our lands. They’re our greatest resources and the key to our tomorrow. That’s why we need to invest in everything from our public schools, trade schools, and our universities, to responsible resource development, renewable energies, and climate action. Investing in these resources will move Alaska forward. Let’s work together and build a brighter future for us all.
