Get to know the veteran and small-town mayor impacting communities like yours.
As a proven frontline leader and advocate, I will fight on your behalf to improve community health and wellness levels.
Like many throughout the State of Texas and Nation, the needs of the people and I are hand-in-hand to ensure underserved, underrepresented, suburban, and rural communities are more than “thought of” in policies.
Too often, those with the power to influence change are invested in self-interest which is why I’m committed to identifying means and supporting work focused on overcoming systemic inequities.
Only by holding federal, state, county, and municipal officials and entities accountable for monies received and expected services will inclusive policies and enhanced programs through local and regional collaboration occur.
