City council, Black Jack, Ward 1, 2021-present
Incumbent?
Yes
1) Currently looking into speed bumps to prevent speeding on the street to keep the children and the residents safe; more of a police presence. 2) Find a solution for seniors and people who live with challenges or have limited mobility during inclement weather and try to get them assistance. 3) Community involvement for seniors and people with limited mobility.
I care about my community and will do everything I can to make it safe. I have served on the council for three years.

I am currently on the city’s first Financial Literacy and Advocacy Workshop committee, which is one of the mayor’s initiatives.
