I was born and raised right here in Jackson County. Pamela and I raised our son and daughter here and we are now watching our grandchildren being raised here as well. I am proud to call Jackson County home and now I want to make sure we are prepared for the future. I am invested in our community. The hard-working families of Jackson County deserve someone who will make sure we receive our fair share from Montgomery for our roads and schools. Jackson County deserves someone that will work to bring jobs and businesses to our area while protecting our conservative values, 2nd amendment rights and the unborn. I am a Conservative Christian who will fight for what is right and be your voice. I ask for your vote in the Republican Primary on May 24th.
