I’m running for Alderman in Connelly Springs because I want to bring principled, servant-hearted leadership to our community. Through my ministry experience, I’ve learned to listen with compassion and serve people where they are. In my role as a sales supervisor, I’ve developed strong skills in leading teams, solving problems, and building accountability, and as chairman of the Young Republicans of Burke and Catawba Counties, I’ve worked to engage and empower the next generation. My leadership is rooted in faith and integrity, and I’m committed to helping keep Connelly Springs strong and thriving.
The three priorities I will focus on as Alderman are preserving our small-town values, protecting taxpayers, and ensuring transparency. I believe Connelly Springs is strongest when we honor the faith and family values that built this community, and I will work to ensure those traditions remain at the heart of our future. I am committed to protecting taxpayers by opposing wasteful spending and making sure every dollar is used wisely. And I will fight for transparency in local government, so that decisions are made openly, honestly, and always in the best interest of the people of Connelly Springs
Preserving our small-town values begins with strengthening the bonds that make Connelly Springs unique—faith, family, and community. As Alderman, I will work to support local churches, civic groups, and community events that bring neighbors together and keep our traditions alive. I will also promote policies that encourage families to stay and grow here, while making sure new growth reflects the character of our town rather than eroding it. Most importantly, I will listen to the voices of the people, ensuring that decisions made by our local government reflect the values and priorities of the community we call home
At the end of the day, this isn’t about politics — it’s about people. It’s about preserving what makes Connelly Springs special, protecting the values we hold dear, and ensuring our community remains strong for generations to come.
