Proven Results. Local Leadership. Family Values

I have always said that I have an ongoing love affair with West Kerr County. For many years, it has been my home and my heart. I’ve raised my family here, led our schools, served our community, and stood shoulder to shoulder with my neighbors through good times and tough storms. I believe deeply in faith, family, and community—and I know our best days are still ahead. I’ll protect our natural beauty, strengthen local families, and ensure West Kerr County remains a place where our children and grandchildren can proudly live, work, and prosper. Our next chapter will be our best!
