Expand all | Collapse all

  • The first priority is public safety excellence. Grand Prairie has an outstanding police and fire department, and my priority is to protect that standard. This means supporting recruitment and retention, competitive compensation, modern equipment, and data-driven deployment so our first responders can continue to serve effectively without burnout.
  • The next priority is fiscal discipline and complete transparency. Strong revenues alone do not equal strong financial management. I will focus on spending accountability, clear performance measures, and long-term financial planning that respects taxpayers and avoids shifting today’s costs to future generations.
  • Accessibility and transparency is paramount. My cell phone number is publicly available and as a former State Representative, I always remained accessible to any constituent regardless of political affiliation.
The basics. Public Safety, Roads, and being fiscally responsible with taxpayer dollars. It is truly about the basics. The "blocking and tackling" of city services.
