My Priorities for Cornelius
- Control High-Density Growth
Oppose new high-density residential developments that don’t fit the character of our town, while supporting thoughtful, strategic growth.
- Keep Taxes Low
Maintain financial responsibility and keep taxes low while protecting essential services.
- Invest in Public Safety
Support and strengthen our Police and Fire departments to ensure safe neighborhoods.
- Improve Roads & Infrastructure
Advance long-promised transportation and infrastructure projects to keep Cornelius moving.
- Expand Parks & Recreation
Enhance local programs, parks, and green spaces to promote a true “live, work, play” lifestyle.
- Boost Business Development
Attract more local businesses to support a growing population and strengthen our tax base.
My Experience
- Former Town Commissioner
- Current Cornelius Planning Board Member
This experience has given me a deep understanding of town planning, development, and public safety decisions—and how to make them responsibly.
I’m not learning the ropes. I’ve already been trusted to lead, and I’m ready to continue.
