- I am a hands-on, full-time, 24/7 District Attorney. My caseload consists of homicide cases and violent felonies that I prosecute personally, in addition to my administrative duties.
- I am a Law-and-Order District Attorney, I have been endorsed by all Washington County law enforcement entities. This is important because as District attorney one must works with law enforcement officers on a daily basis.
- As District Attorney I ensure that we also participate in diversionary programs such as veterans court, drug treatment court, mental health court, as well as participating on the opioid coalition. The District Attorney's Office also has a county drug task force that is utilized to combat the drug epidemic.
I am passionate about keeping the communities in Washington County safe. I believe the law should protect everyone especially the most vulnerable people in our society, such as children and the elderly. As District Attorney, I have and will continue to prosecute violent offenders to the fullest extent of the law in order to ensure the safety of everyone in Washington County.
