Why i'm running

I’m running for Lancaster County Board of Commissioners, District 4, because I care about our community and the people who live here, and I know that we can make Lancaster County an even better place to live by working together. 

Lancaster County is a growing, wonderful community, but more and more people are struggling to get by. The cost of housing, food, healthcare, and childcare have all gone up and our families, friends, and neighbors are struggling to afford the basics. I’m running to protect the things that we love about our community and make sure people can afford to keep living here. Whether it’s seniors living on a fixed income or a family raising their kids, or a young professional just starting out in the world – we need to make sure that they can afford to keep calling Lancaster County home. 

I’ve spent my career bringing people together around common sense solutions and working with people of all political leanings and backgrounds to get things done. As a member of the Lower Platte South NRD Board and the Lincoln Electric System Board, I’ve worked with Republicans, Democrats, and Independents to keep costs down while providing the important services that people expect. I’m running for the Lancaster County Board to build common ground and solve the problems that our community is facing to make a better community for all of us. It won’t be easy, but we can roll up our sleeves and do it together.
