I am proud to call Reno my home and love the diversity we have.- I want to reduce crime by increasing our police force and allow them to do their jobs.
- I want to stimulate our local economy by encouraging new businesses and entrepreneurs by creating programs to help them succeed.
- I want to support our seniors and veterans by providing the best services possible and remove obstacles that make it difficult for them in their every day life.
