My upbringing and work experience for the past 44 years have prepared me for this next stage in life. I believe that it is time to continue giving back to the community at this level. I plan on representing all of the District 74 constituents. I am not a career politician and I do not have a personal agenda or owe anyone any special favors. My plan is to bring unity and common ground. This District deserves someone to represent them with transparency, integrity, and fiscal responsibility. But none of that is possible without your help, support and vote. Let us move forward together and I ask you to vote for me in the month of March.”
