Taxes / Budget Smart growth requires smart budgeting. I'll work to ensure Oak Ridge's resources are managed with care, transparency, and long-term vision. Infrastructure / Transportation Our parks are a crown jewel of Oak Ridge—places where families gather, kids play, and neighbors connect. As a longtime member and current co-chair of the Parks & Recreation Advisory Board, I’m committed to preserving and enhancing these spaces for generations to come. Social Services I’ll advocate for safe neighborhoods, strong partnerships with schools, youth sports, and programs that support young people. Investing in our youth means investing in the future of our town. Taxes / Budget I will oppose raising taxes and instead focus on making the most of existing funds through efficient, responsible spending. Infrastructure / Transportation I support development that respects our town’s character, protects green spaces, fosters trail development, and ensures infrastructure keeps pace with community needs.
