Why are you seeking this office?
I am seeking the office of County Commissioner to bring accountability, transparency, and efficiency back to Tarrant County government. I want to ensure taxpayer dollars are spent responsibly, essential services are protected, roads and infrastructure are maintained, public safety is prioritized, and residents have a stronger voice in government decisions. I am committed to making local government work for the people, not special interests or politics.
If elected, what would your top 3 policy priorities be?
- Accountable, efficient government: Cutting waste, protecting essential services, ensuring taxpayer dollars are spent responsibly, and making sure residents have a meaningful voice at Commissioners Court.
- Public safety and infrastructure: Supporting law enforcement and emergency services, maintaining roads, bridges, and drainage, and planning proactively for community needs.
- Trusted and transparent elections: Ensure elections comply with the law, are secure and reliable, and that any issues are addressed to restore public trust
How will you measure your success as Precinct 2 Commissioner?
I will measure my success by tangible results for Precinct 2 residents: efficient use of taxpayer dollars, improved transparency and accountability in county operations, safe and well-maintained roads and infrastructure, effective support for law enforcement and emergency services, and increased opportunities for citizens to have their voices heard in Commissioners Court. Success is when government operates as carefully and responsibly as Tarrant residents manage their own budgets.
Why should voters choose you over your opponents?
I bring disciplined problem-solving, principled leadership, and a commitment to serving the people. I am a constitutional conservative who values servant leadership and upholding the rule of law. As an SAP Solution Architect in the highly regulated aerospace and defense industry, I have streamlined operations, eliminated redundancies, and implemented systems and processes that deliver results with integrity. Combined with deep knowledge of state and local laws, county budgets, and taxing entities, I am prepared to protect essential services, lower the cost of government, and restore citizens’ trust and voice at Commissioners Court.
What challenges do commissioners face with the 2025 redistricting? How would you resolve those issues?
Commissioners faced significant challenges with the 2025 mid-decade redistricting, including a rushed process, outdated data, maps prepared by an out-of-state partisan group, and limited transparency for residents. I opposed this approach because it undermined public trust and did not allow meaningful citizen input. Going forward, I would advocate for fully transparent, deliberate redistricting processes that use current data, prioritize fairness over politics, and give residents ample opportunity to review and influence proposed maps.
What is the main issue facing Precinct 2? How do you plan to resolve it?
The main issue facing Precinct 2 is road safety, traffic congestion, and rising property taxes that strain families. To address it, I will prioritize maintaining roads, bridges, and drainage, work with law enforcement to reduce reckless driving, and work to ensure county spending is transparent and efficient, protecting essential services while keeping taxes as low as possible. My goal is a safer, more affordable Precinct 2 where residents’ voices guide county decisions.
What is the main issue facing the county? How do you plan to resolve it?
The average resident feel they cannot trust the government to act in their best interest to solve everyday problems. To resolve it, I will work to restore transparency and accountability, increase the number of open Commissioners Court meetings, expand opportunities for public participation, ensure county operations are efficient and fiscally responsible, and actively respond to citizen concerns. Tarrant deserves a government that works for residents, protects essential services, keeps taxes fair, and gives citizens confidence that their voices truly matter.
