On the Issues
What is the most urgent problem facing your jurisdiction?
Neighborhood issues are the most urgent problems facing the Braddock District community. From broader aspects to street-level concerns, we must continue to keep our outstanding schools and public-safety services funded, as well as addressing more specific concerns such as cleaning up commercial vehicle parking. As someone who has created jobs in Fairfax County, I also understand the need for business and government to work together. With a strong partnership, we can navigate this challenging economic environment and the difficult budget times that we are working through.
Why should voters elect you?
I bring the depth and breadth of skills through my business background and community involvement required to be an engaged and effective supervisor.
