I have dedicated my entire career to the people of District 3. As a teacher, coach, administrator, and public servant, I have worked to put the needs of the community first and I believe in the future of District 3. Madison County is my home and I believe that the citizens deserve a full-time commissioner that will work to improve the quality of life for all our citizens.
