Who are you? Tell us about yourself.

I began my law enforcement career in 2016 at the Frederick Oklahoma Police Department, where I quickly rose through the ranks to become a Corporal. After six years with the department, I left to join the Tillman County Sheriff's Department in 2021, where I served as a Sergeant and Night Shift Supervisor until 2024. Since leaving the Tillman County Sheriff's Department, I have been serving as the Assistant Chief of Police for the Town of Tipton. Throughout my career, I have gained valuable experience and developed a deep commitment to serving and protecting my community.

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?

• Experience is crucial, but the source of that experience is what truly counts. Throughout my career, I have been dedicated to serving the residents of Tillman County. This is not just a job for me - Tillman County is our home, and my family and I are committed to continuing our service to this community. I have been proudly serving Tillman County since 2016, and I am determined to continue doing so for many years to come.
• Transparency in all aspects of our government is crucial, and it begins at the county level. From exposing corruption to keeping citizens informed about important county government issues, this is the kind of leadership you can expect when you elect me to represent Tillman County.
• My ultimate goal is to foster a robust and trusting relationship between the Tillman County Sheriff Department and the community it serves. I am dedicated to ensuring that every resident feels safe and secure in their homes and neighborhoods.

What areas of public policy are you personally passionate about?

I am a firm advocate of the Second Amendment as I believe it safeguards all our other rights. Without it, our freedoms are at risk.

I also stand for robust immigration laws and a secure border. A nation without borders is vulnerable to disorder.

What characteristics or principles are most important for an elected official?

In law enforcement, honesty, integrity, and transparency are fundamental values crucial for building a strong and trusting relationship between our citizens and their elected officials.

What do you believe are the core responsibilities for someone elected to this office?

It is the solemn duty of the sheriff to uphold the constitutions of the United States and Oklahoma, while also ensuring the safety and protection of the county's citizens.

What legacy would you like to leave?

I am committed to concluding my career with the knowledge that I have significantly influenced the lives of Tillman County residents and the state of Oklahoma by shaping policies that safeguard citizens and by uncovering and eliminating corruption.
