What areas of public policy are you personally passionate about?

People often ask me why I am running for this position as county recorder. The short answer: I have a strong desire to serve the public and make a positive and progressive impact on the office that I serve.

My background in technology and experience in the financial and real estate business allows me to have a better understanding of what it takes to organize, store and manage large amounts of documents and information. In order to move our county of over 800,000 people forward, we need to pioneer new systems and standards that utilize technology and increase efficiency. This in-turn will lower costs for everyone while helping our county advance and expand.

There is a lot of work to be done in this office of Hamilton County Recorder. I would like to be the person to lead the team that will get the job done in 2021. I thank the entire county electorate for considering me in this role and would graciously ask for your vote. You will not be disappointed.
