On the Issues

What is the most urgent problem facing your jurisdiction?

Our community has grown tremendously over the past 10 years. Today, our transportation infrastructure is struggling to keep pace with our needs. As supervisor, I will work to extend the VRE here, bring bus rapid transit and also recruit businesses here to relieve traffic congestion. We must continue addressing local traffic flow as well as bringing additional transportation options.

Why should voters elect you?

My business background and knowledge of the county gives me the experience needed to address local concerns and offer a vision for the county.
