I never set out to become a politician. I decided to run because I care deeply about this community and wanted to be part of helping it move forward. Through this campaign, I've met so many incredible people who have shared their ideas, concerns, and hopes for Hancock County, and every conversation has reinforced why this work matters. I believe the best leaders listen first, bring people together, and focus on finding practical solutions. Working side by side, we can build a stronger Hancock County where our families, communities, and businesses have the opportunity to thrive.
