I am motivated to run for District Clerk because the Clerk’s office plays a critical role in ensuring access to justice, transparency, and public trust in our court system. Through my professional experience in administrative operations, legal support, and compliance, I have seen firsthand how efficient record management, accuracy, and customer service directly impact residents, attorneys, and the courts. I am running to strengthen the reliability, responsiveness, and integrity of the District Clerk’s Office so it serves Nueces County with professionalism, efficiency, and respect.
My strongest competency is my ability to manage complex legal and administrative processes with precision, accountability, and attention to detail. I have worked in roles that require maintaining confidential records, ensuring compliance with legal and regulatory requirements, and supporting attorneys, judges, and the public. Additionally, my experience in data management, case tracking, and customer-facing administrative services has prepared me to lead an office that must balance accuracy, efficiency, and accessibility every day.
The number one concern I hear from residents is the need for timely, accurate access to court records and responsive customer service. Many residents express frustration with delays, lack of clarity, or difficulty navigating court processes. My response is a commitment to improving communication, modernizing record systems where possible, and ensuring staff are trained to provide consistent, courteous, and efficient service. The District Clerk’s Office should be approachable, transparent, and reliable for everyone it serves.
1. Improving records management and technology: I will prioritize accurate, secure, and well-organized court records by strengthening internal procedures and supporting responsible technology upgrades that improve efficiency while protecting sensitive information. 2. Staff development and accountability: I will support ongoing training, clear performance standards, and a culture of accountability to ensure consistent, professional service across all divisions. 3. Transparency and public accessibility: I will improve communication, update publicly accessible resources, and ensure residents can easily understand how to obtain court records and assistance without unnecessary barriers.
