Occupation

My Top Issues
Government Reform
If elected, I will request that all livestreams be archived, and city minutes actually inform citizens of what occurred at city meetings.
Taxes / Budget
I will demand fiscal accountability and transparency because it is not the government’s money; it is our money.
Infrastructure / Transportation
We must continue moving our city forward while strategically preparing our infrastructure, schools, and other essential city services for future growth without overburdening the city financially.
Education
If elected, I will continue working with school leaders to find new opportunities to improve our schools and enhance our School Resource Officer (SRO) program.
Criminal Justice / Public Safety
If elected, I will assess the need for additional fire stations and police officers. The government's primary responsibility is the safety of its citizens, and if Hoover wants to once again become the gold standard, we cannot afford to be complacent.
