Experience: Fifteen years in the United States Marine Corp, 13 years of leadership including being a part of Leaders of America.

Reason for running: “I have been in Charles City for 10 years and I see other counties around us working and developing. There hasn’t been much growth in 10 years but I want to bring that growth here.”

Why people should vote for you: “I am dedicated, have the leadership, background, and I believe I am more than qualified to be useful to the county.”
