Issues
Public Safety
Public safety is the foundation of a thriving community, and I am committed to making Colorado Springs safer for all residents. With 24 years in law enforcement and a military background in emergency management, I understand the challenges we face—officer retention, training, rising crime, school safety, increased traffic and homelessness. As a former police officer and military leader, I will advocate for better resources, training, and retention strategies to strengthen our police force. I will work to improve emergency preparedness, address homelessness, and support responsible growth that ensures safe neighborhoods. We need practical, informed leadership to make real improvements in public safety.​

​Infrastructure
A strong infrastructure is the backbone of a thriving city. As Colorado Springs continues to grow, we must invest in roads, public services, and utilities to support residents and businesses. My experience in law enforcement and emergency management has shown me the importance of well-maintained infrastructure for public safety and economic stability. I will advocate for efficient maintenance of roads and adoption of technologies which improve traffic flow. I also will advocate for responsible growth that includes sustainable water management, affordable energy, and efficient transportation. We need practical, long-term solutions that enhance our quality of life without excessively burdening taxpayers.
​
Reducing Housing Burdens
Housing affordability is a growing challenge in Colorado Springs, and we must take action to reduce the burden on families. This is especially true for our young people who are making their first move from home into independence. As a longtime resident, I understand the impact of rising housing costs firsthand. I will advocate for responsible infrastructure development, to include low-income housing, that ensures sustainable growth while maintaining the quality of life that makes our city great. We must expand housing opportunities, improve public services, and support residents and businesses. Smart, data-driven policies will help balance growth and affordability, ensuring Colorado Springs remains a vibrant place to live.
