Residents deserve a representative who is prepared and involved in the community. I helped reopen the Arnold senior center, supported senior tax relief, strengthened stormwater regulations to protect neighborhoods and advocated for more government transparency. I support responsible economic development that creates jobs while protecting infrastructure and quality of life.
Responsible growth: development that follows our master plan and county ordinances. Infrastructure and public safety: improve roads, address stormwater and flooding concerns, expand sidewalks and enhance transportation safety. Transparent, accessible, accountable government: keep residents informed, encourage public participation and ensure accountable county government

I am the District 3 member of the county Planning and Zoning Commission. My top three priorities are revising the county Unified Development Order to better reflect the new Master Plan, making sure Jefferson County is prepared for the fourth industrial revolution (referred to as Industry 4.0) and holding development accountable to follow the guidelines set by the county.
I have a variety of work experience to draw upon: search and rescue, tactical law enforcement, pay and personnel duties with the U.S. Coast Guard, and logistical operations for UPS and Home Depot. I have over 19 years of IT experience with Mercy Hospital. Industry 4.0 will need technically proficient people in leadership positions. We can't afford to be behind.
