I care deeply about Williamson County - its values and way of life. Many people move here for what Williamson County has to offer, but then want to change things once they arrive. Having served on the commission for 14 years, I understand the importance of good representation and communication at the state level. I have no illusions about the many challenges our rapidly growing county face.

I believe in Williamson County's tradition of fiscal responsibility. I am running to continue serving you in order to promote budgetary prudence, small government, and to sustain an environment that supports job creation. I will vote for policies that keep Williamson County the best county to live, raise a family, grow a business, and retire.

During my time as Commissioner, our schools have become among the best in the nation. We have built a nationally recognized Sheriff's Department, great parks, roads, and a state-of-the-art hospital. And we have accomplished all of this with one of the lowest tax rates in the country.

Each of these accomplishments is outstanding on its own. But when you put them all together, you begin to recognize how blessed we are to live in Williamson County. Most wealthy counties in the U.S. are not known for their low tax rates, and most counties with low tax rates are not known for their excellent schools. We have both, and it didn't happen by accident. It's the result of hard-working, fiscally responsible individuals doing their due diligence every day to ensure our property values and way of life remain high, while our taxes and crime rate remain low – The Williamson County Way.
