Issues
This is how we will make things better.
Public Safety
Killeen is an incredible city, but our residents deserve to feel secure in their own neighborhoods. To protect our community, we must ensure our police have the manpower, technology, and investigative resources required to actually solve crimes against people and property, not just respond to them. I will fight to fully equip law enforcement so we can drive down crime, improve case clearance rates, and make Killeen the safest city in Central Texas.
Better Roads
As an avid motorcycle rider, I experience the exact quality of Killeen's roads firsthand every single day. Traffic congestion and deteriorating streets aren't just daily annoyances—they are symptoms of a lack of long-term planning. To fix this, we have to get ahead of our infrastructure problems. We need to build roads that actually account for Killeen's rapid growth so we aren't forced to rebuild them every five years. Smart, long-term planning saves taxpayer money and keeps our city moving safely.
Affordability
Killeen thrives when local businesses thrive, because businesses are the engine for good-paying, high-quality jobs. Right now, unnecessary red tape is artificially inflating the cost of building and operating, threatening Killeen's affordability for both new homeowners and new business owners. When elected, I will lead a comprehensive audit of our city codes to identify and eliminate the ordinances that are stifling economic growth. We have brilliant entrepreneurs right here in Killeen who are ready to build and scale. It’s time we get out of their way and start betting on our own people.
Open Meetings
Holding City Council meetings at 3:00 PM on a workday shuts out the very people we are supposed to serve. Working families shouldn't have to take time off just to have their voices heard. When elected, I will push to move our meetings to the evenings so every resident can easily engage. Public service means listening to the public—and if we aren't making it accessible for you to participate, we aren't doing our jobs.
