Citizen Safety

“The foundation of any great city is the safety of its citizens.  Citizen safety not only gives us all a wonderful city to live in , but helps to ensure long term economic growth.  I pledge my full support to the Bowling Green Police Department and will do my best to make sure they are fully funded.  I believe as a fast growing city, we need more police officers, not less.”

Economic Growth

“Long term economic growth is essential to the future of Bowling Green.  Economic challenges lie ahead.  We have still yet to see the full impact COVID-19 has had on our local economy.  It is important the people who will be making these financial decisions understand a balance sheet and how to stick to a budget.  I pledge to use my 20+ years of business experience to be fiscally responsible with your tax dollars.”

Opportunity

“Re-entry programs save tax payer dollars.  Those who participate in re-entry programs are filling job openings that may otherwise go unfilled.  This adds to the city’s tax base providing more revenue for important city services.  Most importantly, re-entry programs give those who have earned it a second chance at life and opportunity.”
