- I walked into a agency that was having some short falls. I was able to pull it out of the deficit and invest in new equipment. Equipment such as weapons, tasers, radios, laptops, units, updated workspace. All white naking sure the officers received an 11% pay increase. I plan to continue to advocate for the employees and ensure they are treated fairly.
- My vision is to continue to be a public servant and continue to take care of my community. Most of the duties of the Constable are mandated by the court and because of that my vision is to continue to bridge the gaps between law enforcement and the public. My vision is to continue the community events and give backs.
- I am approachable, I have a open door policy, I have a passion for what I do and I love what I do. I am up for re-election. I'm the only candidate that has Proven myself to my community. I'm the only candidate that has the training, the knowledge, the experience and the compassion to do what I do.
Worked my way up to store manager. I loved it. I was working in a retail store. Customer service was important. Heavy cash handling was a part of it and managing the entire store with 5-8 employees.
