I have experience in Real Estate, budgeting, stream lining processes and working within a group of people to get things accomplished.
Housing shortages, roads falling apart, empty east side of town to just name a few. We need to find a way to get businesses back downtown and on the east side of town, work on our roads, and find more creative ways for housing in this city.
It is going to take a team to get things accomplished. It will take some time but I believe with change and the right people we can make it happen!
