Why am I running for City Council in Ward 1?

I’m running for City Council because I believe in protecting what makes Hot Springs great—our values, our veterans, and our way of life. As a U.S. Army veteran, longtime resident, and active leader in our community, I’ve seen firsthand how local decisions impact everyday folks. We need common-sense leadership that puts families, small businesses, and public safety first—not bureaucracy or bloated budgets.

Ward 1 deserves a voice that will stand up against unnecessary taxes, fight for the future of our VA, support local businesses, and ensure that City Hall stays accountable to the people—not special interests. I’m not a career politician—I’m a citizen stepping up to defend our community, grow our economy, and preserve our freedoms.

It’s time to bring responsibility, transparency, and real results back to local government. That’s why I’m running—and I’d be honored to earn your vote.
