  • Waxhaw is growing fast, and we need leadership that puts residents first when it comes to planning, infrastructure, and development. I’m committed to fiscally responsible, forward-thinking solutions that preserve our small-town charm while addressing the real challenges of growth.

    As your commissioner, I’ll prioritize infrastructure that serves our families with safer roads, better traffic flow, more walkable neighborhoods, and zoning that respects our town’s identity. I’ll push to accelerate key projects like the Helm Road extension West, expand green space and recreation, and protect our historic downtown through long-range planning.

    Let’s make sure growth doesn’t overwhelm what makes Waxhaw special — let’s put residents first.
  • Strengthen the Foundation – Build the Future. With a deep background in logistics and leadership, I bring real-world problem-solving to Town Hall. I will push for responsible budgeting, improved town operations, and upgrades in key areas like infrastructure. From safer streets to better communication with residents, I’m committed to building a town government that works as hard as you do.
  • Preserve What Makes Waxhaw Special. Waxhaw’s small-town charm, historic core, and close-knit community are worth protecting. I will stand against overdevelopment that threatens our identity and quality of life. As part of the Waxhaw Wall 2.0 team, I’ll work collaboratively to preserve our past, improve our present, and plan wisely for our future.
As a logistics professional and five-year volunteer on Waxhaw’s Planning & Zoning Board, I’m passionate about responsible growth, infrastructure, and preserving our small-town charm. I bring real-world business experience and a deep understanding of how planning affects everyday life. I’ll advocate for thoughtful land use, smarter traffic solutions, and policies that put residents first while helping Waxhaw remain a great place for families and businesses.
