Current Occupation
Attorney
I have represented District 2 on the Laurinburg City Council since 2011 and believe that the Council and City staff are taking positive steps to move the City forward.
1) Continued downtown revitalization.
2) Job creation and bringing investment into the City
3) Addressing crime, especially gun violence
The council has created a Downtown Advisory Committee and we have demonstrated that we do all we can to implement their recommendations. I also share my own wishes and concerns regarding downtown revitalization with council and staff.
