Continued Leadership

For the past eight years, I have had the honor of serving the residents of Oro Valley on Town Council, including as your Vice Mayor. My service has been guided by a simple principle: thoughtful leadership, fiscal responsibility, and always putting Oro Valley residents first. With my legal background and my experience in land use planning and zoning, I have brought careful analysis, independent judgment, and practical problem-solving to every decision before Council. Whether strengthening public safety, turning around Town golf’s multi-million-dollar losses, helping deliver transformational investments like Naranja Park and Community Center improvements, or supporting long-term water sustainability projects, I have focused on results that protect taxpayers while preserving the exceptional quality of life that makes Oro Valley so special.

I first entered public service because I believed Oro Valley residents deserved strong, independent representation — leadership willing to ask hard questions, challenge assumptions, and make decisions based on what is best for our community, not outside interests. Throughout my time in office, I have worked to advocate for residents, protect Oro Valley’s beauty and views, and plan responsibly for our future through sound financial stewardship, strategic investment, and thoughtful long-term planning. As I run for Mayor, I am committed to building on that record of proven leadership to keep Oro Valley safe, fiscally strong, sustainable, and one of the best places in Arizona to live, work, and retire.
