I have the experience to be a City Council member. I have been legislatively active for over 30 years.
I understand the legislative process, can write a resolution or ordinance, and can run or participate in a meeting using Roberts Rules of Order. I have been attending City Council meetings since November 2021. I know what decisions have been made and if any may have future implications. I would be ready on day one.

I believe in a city where everyone matters!
