Having been in this county for decades, I have a true understanding of the wants and needs of our county. I know I can bring fresh ideas to the commission based on my experience. I know the devastation we have experienced having been a resident during numerous hurricanes. I am aware of the growing pains we have experienced be it infrastructure, schools, law enforcement, and government itself. I enjoy helping people and know I can be a true representative for my constituents. As your commissioner, I will represent you and ensure your voices are heard. I promise you that I will be honest, transparent, and always there when you need me. As you can see from my history above, I have been involved with many facets of this county and know this knowledge and experience is what is needed in our leaders.
