Let me be clear—this campaign is not about me. It’s about us. It’s about every new member of our community whether they came from a different town or different country, every small business owner, every student dreaming of a bright future, and every senior who, like my own grandparents, helped build Johnson City.

For too long, our village has faced economic uncertainty, and a disconnect between government and the people it serves. For too long, a select few voices - who all look and sound the same - have led and managed our village and they just don’t have the broad perspectives needed to truly understand the diverse challenges and aspirations of all the people who call Johnson City home. Leadership should reflect the community it serves—all backgrounds, all walks of life.

Real leadership isn’t about power—it’s about service. It’s about listening, it’s about lifting people up, and it’s about making sure that every single voice in our community is heard, supported, and loved.

Here’s what we’re going to do together:

🔹 We will revitalize our economy by supporting small businesses and making sure Johnson City is a place where folks can thrive.
🔹 We will stabilize our infrastructure—because safe roads, reliable utilities, and clean streets are not luxuries, they’re necessities.
🔹 We will support education and workforce development to create more viable pathways for success.
🔹 We will strengthen public safety by fostering trust between our community and law enforcement, making sure everyone feels protected and respected.
🔹 And most importantly, we will restore a relationship between the community and our local government — because transparency, accountability, and inclusion are not optional. They are the foundation of democracy.
