My motivation to serve as County Treasurer comes from my genuine desire to serve my community and make a meaningful, positive difference in the lives of the people I have a privilege to represent. I believe that government should be a bridge not a barrier and by expanding our services through technology we can meet the needs of taxpayers in their community.
Being the County Treasurer is move than holding a title, it's about being a good stewart of the resources entrusted to me. I want to ensure that taxpayers are treated with respect, that the county funds are handled responsibly and that our office operates as effectively and efficiently as possible. I believe transparency happens when taxpayers have access to accurate, timely and understandable information.
