Please list below 3 key messages of your campaign. What are the main points you want voters to remember about your goals for your time in office?

• Address challenges of rapid population growth with data informed planning and wide input from constituents. This requires understanding current growth patterns, identifying growth corridors, and working with residents to minimize negative impacts of growth while maximizing opportunities and services.
• Ensure that all constituents' voices are heard, and all needs are considered for action. It is essential that projects and planning proceed with a eye to the well-being and needs of community, particularly in areas where infrastructure is in need of attention.
• Responsible budgeting based on accurate information about the community, available resources, and constituent needs. Ensure that essential services such as Emergency response and Public Safety are appropriately funded and regularly assessed for effective use of budgetary resources. It is not enough to budget tax dollars for public expenditures, but the use of funds must be assessed objectively for appropriateness of use.

What areas of public policy are you personally passionate about?

I am passionate about the Common Good. It is the root of all good public policy. It starts with fair and equal representation, listening to voices of the voters, and engaging in dialogue with all positions. By working together to find the best solutions and the best plans to meet the challenges of the community, we can provide quality services through effective budgets rooted in our shared values of fairness and responsibility.
