Aug 2, 2020 at 12:24 comment added boileau So I added the pull down resistor and reversed R6 and R7 from my original circuit and then discovered that Q2 was placed backwards. With those changes the circuit works as expected. Thanks for the help.

Regarding resistor sizes, I was under the impression that large resistances will cause the MOSFET to switch slower. Although if it's a matter of a few ms, that's not an issue for my purposes.
