Statement:

I absolutely love the south side and I’m firmly attached to his overall success as a homeowner, referee and small business owner. I’ve never realized politics took place at a local level. That is, until I was forced to. Friends, neighbors and myself share frustrating stories around the increase of crime and homelessness to the governmental overreach of our children. Enough is enough. Thank you for your vote in support of community safety, school choice and a limited government candidate in myself. It is with much gratitude the opportunity to meet everyone of you and listen to your stories and ideas for our shared community.
