I am honored to serve as your Councilman and looking forward to following in the steps of your prior leaders by continuing their fine legacy of leadership. My focus is to enhance education, assure public and personal safety, and, champion community vibrancy.

Education
As your elected representative, I am committed to fulfilling a vision that establishes a high quality of life for all. As an educator and father of three, I will work with my fellow Councilmembers and County Executive, Dr. Calvin Ball, to ensure that appropriate budgets are fully funded and disseminated in a timely manner to help our students, parents, and teachers thrive.

Public & Personal Safety
I am proud that Columbia was recently named one of the safest cities to live in America. I recognize that the safety of our residents is essential to ensure that our communities remain one of the top places to live in the country. As a former appointed member of the Howard County Human Rights Commission, I will work closely with our heroic first responders to guarantee that public and personal safety remains a top priority for our neighborhoods.

Community Vibrancy
My family and I love living here for so many reasons, but primarily because the sense of community in Howard County is something that should be modeled across the nation. I am devoted to working across boundaries to develop solutions that will continue to enhance our beautiful neighborhoods.
