| Collapse all
- I will support first responders with the staffing, training, and resources they need. Just as important is community policing that builds trust, transparency, and strong relationships with residents.
- I will work to protect our parks and trails, promote responsible tourism that showcases Plano, and keep the balance between businesses and neighborhoods that helps maintain lower tax rates.
- I will support coordinated wrap-around services for all citizens in need (i.e.. collaborative efforts to support through schools, agencies, hospitals, workforce etc.)
