Top Issues

Infrastructure / Transportation As an outdoor enthusiast, I want to preserve our unique natural resources throughout Wicomico county. Additionally I want to promote growth in our Parks and Recreation to increase tourism to our area. Criminal Justice / Public Safety As a citizen of our great county, I know that Wicomico County remains great because of the first responders that put their lives on the line every day and night. While we sleep, they are on watch, ensuring our safety and providing assistance when needed. I will always support our first responders and stand behind their tough judgment. Education Our kids are the future and we must sow seeds of success for our generations to come. As your next councilman I will back the parents’ role in their child’s education. It is the parents role to raise their children as they see fit. It is the school’s role to educate the children in traditional subjects such as reading, writing, math, science, history and civics. I support trade programs equally, if not more than college preparatory curriculum. I am a strong advocate for Parent Choice and School Choice. Environment / Energy As an avid hunter and fisherman, I have gotten to know many of our local farmers and watermen. Our farmers and watermen will not be forgotten on my watch. They provide us with the foods necessary to nourish our bodies and the luxury of Eastern Shore delicacies such as the Maryland Blue Crab and Chesapeake Bay Oyster. They must be respected and protected. I will always vote on their behalf and have a voice for them. Infrastructure / Transportation There will always be growth. In the time I have lived in Wicomico County, I have seen it double in size. The leadership in our county needs to focus on healthy growth, not just any growth. We need to protect the natural beauty of our farmlands, woodlands and waterways, all that makes up our Eastern Shore. Economy As your next councilman, I will support local business. Small business owners are a unique group who create and have the ability to make our local economy boom. As your councilman I will keep your taxes low so you can grow and make Wicomico a place to thrive.
