For Board of Commissioners
Town of Huntersville

I Am Running For Re-Election – Let’s Continue The Work We Started!

I still believe it’s my job to represent every citizen.

In my first term, supported funding our first full-time fire department, additional police officers, and improvements to sidewalks and roads, because safety must come first. I also backed investments in our parks and greenways, because community and liveability matter.

We launched a downtown revitalization plant that includes a long-overdue new Town Hall – complete with a Veteran’s Service Center. I worked to slow unchecked development and made decisions to help preserve the charm that makes Huntersville special.

I remain committed to balanced growth, public safety, fiscal responsibility, and above all, listening. Listening to our residents, business owners, fellow commissioners, dedicated town staff, and neighboring communities to ensure our town, and region reflect the vision of our shared future.
