Court can help facilitate regional water agreements that benefit all communities and leverage state and federal partnerships. Water is costly but essential for responsible growth and quality of life. I support roads and development that pay their own way, prioritizing expansion within existing right of way and requiring developers to build arterials, avoiding costly, controversial new corridors.
Lower Taxes & Smarter Spending
Cap the county tax rate, require transparency. ID waste, renegotiate agreements, ensure competition
Roads and Growth That Pay Their Way
Work with developers to fund road project, secure right-of-way, expand existing corridors where right-of-way is available, develop regional sports facilities
Secure Our Water Future
Strategic partnerships with BRA and others
The Commissioners Court should maintain an updated countywide emergency plan with clear roles and communication protocols. Regular joint exercises with cities, schools, ESDs, and neighboring counties will strengthen coordination before disasters occur. Investing in resilient infrastructure, redundant communications, and clear public messaging ensures a fast, efficient, and unified response.
I would ground decisions in verified data, clear performance metrics, and regular financial reporting. That includes reviewing audits, benchmarking against similar counties, and requiring measurable outcomes—not assumptions. Input from subject-matter experts and frontline staff matters. Transparency drives accountability. Sound policy should be based on facts, not politics.

High growth has caused infrastructure to lag, creating strain and confusion. The Commissioners Court must prioritize investments that work—sustainable roads, drainage, water, and utilities—using smart, responsible planning that coordinates with cities and developers to support quality living, public safety, and strong business conditions.
My top three priorities are: 1) Building sustainable infrastructure—roads, drainage, water, and utilities—to keep up with growth; 2) Addressing high property taxes to ensure fairness and affordability; 3) Strengthening public safety to meet the challenges of a growing population while maintaining excellent service.
The July floods (as an example) tested our readiness and resource management, with community support sometimes exceeding what we could handle. The Court should ensure early warnings, coordinate resources with neighboring jurisdictions, and have strong post-disaster cleanup and recovery plans to protect residents and strengthen resilience.
Drawing on my experience as an attorney, business owner, and public servant, I would ensure decisions are data-driven and based on accurate, up-to-date information from county departments and experts. I would also promote transparency, seek community input, and review outcomes to ensure county services meet real needs effectively.
With more than two decades in dedicated public service, I aim to bring a unique blend of high-level municipal governing experience as well as emergency operations and public safety expertise.
Over two terms as a Leander City Council Member, I provided strategic oversight for an annual budget of $338 million, ensuring fiscal responsibility while managing rapid community growth. My leadership also extends to the state level, where I worked as a Statewide Traffic Incident Management (TIM) Program Manager at TxDOT. Prioritizing infrastructure is key to ensuring a high quality of life.
Lowering property taxes, increasing public safety, promoting smart growth, and saying NO to new toll roads. If elected, I will work to ensure our Sheriffs’ Office has the resources and staff to keep our county a safe place to live, work, and play. We must also prioritize infrastructure development to prevent growth from outpacing residents’ needs as well as grow our businesses and tax base.
Our Commissioners Court should implement and provide mandatory regional training in emergency management annually with cities, adjoining counties, and state officials and develop SOPs for such events. We should also invest in early warning systems for flood prone areas, and prevent development in these same areas. And we must continue to invest in equipment and training for our first responders.
When I served on the Leander City Council, I served on our CIP subcommittee. We developed a scoring matrix to prioritize projects for our city, including quality of life, public safety, economic development, operational capacity. Other factors considered, such as project readiness and funding availability. As Commissioner, I would ensure that we utilize data driven processes in our decision making
