Growing up here, I cherished every moment—from the Indian mall days to the transformation of downtown. ASU ball games to 4th of Julys in the park. Skiing on Craighead Lake to Munchy’s cheese sticks.
My journey took me far, managing big projects and leading teams of hundreds. But my heart never left Jonesboro.
Like you, I’ve noticed that Jonesboro is not what it used to be. In the past decade, we’ve nearly doubled in size… and sadly, we’ve almost doubled in drug problems, violent crimes, poor school test scores, poor housing, and dropped in our overall quality of life.
Something has to change. We need to change directions now before we spiral out of control like other once peaceful, prosperous Arkansas towns. We can no longer ignore the truth and the problems we face as a community.
I feel called by God to act and serve you. I’m running for mayor because I believe in us, in our potential to make Jonesboro a beacon of safety, prosperity, and pride.
Let’s do this – together!- Community Safety: We’re making Jonesboro a fortress of safety. No shortcuts, no excuses. Our kids, our families deserve to walk our streets without fear.
- Fiscal Responsibility: Every penny of your taxes will be guarded like it should be. We’re cutting waste, saving for tomorrow, and investing where it counts. No more blind or frivolous spending.
- City Hall’s gonna be an open book. We work for you. Expect nothing less than honesty, integrity, and results.
To be effective, the mayor and law enforcement leaders must maintain open lines of communication and be able to work together on issues. Transparency and trust are essential, as they foster public confidence in the city’s leadership and its police force. Additionally, the mayor should provide oversight to ensure that law enforcement operates within legal and ethical boundaries, while also supporting the police in their efforts to protect the community.
