I am a registered Republican, but my political stance aligns more closely with that of a Conservative-Nationalist. I believe that by putting God first in my decisions, I can best serve my city. I firmly believe that if elected, one should act as a public servant and not use an official position for personal gain. I am proud to be a part of this city and will do my best to help Indian Trail prosper.
  • I will give my all for this town and the people in it.
  • I will put God first.
  • I will listen to anyone who is concerned about our city and address their concerns immediately.
One of my greatest passions at the municipal level is building a strong community. I am also a strong advocate for our schools and for supporting the next generation. Younger generations face serious challenges in our current economic climate, including the stress of not being able to provide for themselves, let alone future families. We must create a stable and reliable pathway for them—not just for their success, but for the generations that follow.
As a town council member, I may not have a direct impact on state government, but every city matters and deserves to be represented by someone who truly cares. The decisions we make at the city level can influence our local communities and have the potential to inspire and guide neighboring municipalities.
I know the difference between right and wrong. My beliefs aren’t shaped by political books—I believe in learning from every perspective. It’s important to recognize the flaws, but also to take away the positive ideas each viewpoint can offer.
I believe the most important characteristic of an elected official is to be respectful to others.
I am deeply passionate about everything I commit to, and my goal is to help and uplift my community.
The primary responsibility of an elected official is to serve the people. They are elected to represent and support others—not to use their position for personal gain.
Experience can be valuable, but everyone has to start somewhere. I believe anyone can do a great job if they have a genuine desire to help others and use the position for good. While I have never held public office, I am committed to learning quickly and giving my absolute best to serve the community.
I believe the government should be more financially transparent. There is corruption, and it should not be hidden.
