Q&A: Meet the candidates running for Fort Worth City Council, District 10

Why are you running for office?

As a small business owner and lifelong Fort Worth advocate, I am running for City Council to ensure District 10 remains safe, prosperous and positioned for long-term success. I’ll bring a business-driven, fiscally conservative approach to City Hall to protect your paycheck and prioritize results.

What are the biggest challenges facing the city?

Fort Worth’s rapid growth is creating a rising tax burden for homeowners and straining our infrastructure. We must address the need for reliable roads, ensure first responders have resources to keep neighborhoods safe and eliminate wasteful government spending that threatens our city’s long-term prosperity.

How do you plan to address these issues?

I will implement a business-minded approach to budgeting, cutting inefficiencies and waste to lower property taxes. I’ll prioritize targeted infrastructure upgrades for safer streets and ensure public safety has proactive support. Driving responsible economic growth will also keep Fort Worth affordable.

What would your top priorities be if you are elected?

My top priorities are providing property tax relief through fiscal discipline, improving road infrastructure and mobility, ensuring safe neighborhoods by supporting first responders and fostering efficient city services. I am committed to accountability and delivering world-class service to every resident of District 10.

Why are you running for office?

I want to be the voice of the people. As a business owner, volunteer and City Hall district director, I understand District 10’s needs. I’ve devoted years to our community and am ready to serve to bring the voice of the community forward.

What are the biggest challenges facing the city?

The city of Fort Worth continues to experience rampant growth within District 10. Residential development continues to outpace our road infrastructure. With traffic congestion building up and more housing developments coming in, we are straining our roadways.

How do you plan to address these issues?

Working with the right departments and entities will be crucial in ultimately finding solutions for the overly burdened roadways, such as purchasing rights-of-way ahead of development projects and providing a balance of mixed-use development to reduce drive time for residents to retail.
