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?

• Focus on the fundamentals of educating our children
• Support teachers and staff
• Ensure fiscal responsibility

What areas of public policy are you personally passionate about?

Increasing student proficiency and preparing our graduates to compete in our modern economy. Guilford County is on the cusp of great economic development, and we need to prepare our students to take advantage of the opportunities that are here.

What is the primary job of a school board member in your view?

The school board is a collaborative group that provides oversight to the superintendent and the school system. An individual board member does not have authority outside of the entire board, so they must work to become a cohesive group. The board member does not run the school system, but provides vision and goals as representatives of the parents and public. The school board member also hires and evaluates the superintendent.

Who are your constituents?

My constituents are the parents of the District 6 schools, the students, staff, and faculty of the schools and all of the taxpayers within the district and county.

If the candidate disagrees with an edit, he or she may request the full removal of the survey response from Ballotpedia.org. Ballotpedia does not edit or correct typographical errors unless the candidate's campaign requests it.
