Why are you running for this position?
Five generations of my family have made their home in Collin County, and my great-great-grandparents were Collin County farmers throughout the Great Depression. I love the people of Collin County and I’m working hard to preserve and protect the blessings and the opportunities of our community for future generations.
What are the biggest challenges facing the county?
During my first campaign, I promised that I would pursue limited government, low taxes, and excellence in every aspect of county government. I kept my promises and I’ve stood strong as a consistent and courageous champion for Texas values including private property rights, limited regulation, low taxes, and government transparency.
What would your top priorities be if elected?
Today, Collin County is the healthiest, safest, and strongest county in Texas, and we lead the state in economic opportunity and government efficiency. As your county judge for four more years, I will continue to keep my promises and I will keep Collin County successful and Texas Strong!
What local projects are most important to prepare for the future of Collin County?
The future of Collin County is bright, and I will work tirelessly to support the projects that promote our shared Texas values: safe communities, clean streets, excellence in local government, and opportunities for our families and our children.
How do you plan to involve residents in the decision-making process?
Collin County belongs to every person who makes their home here, and we are better and stronger when each person adds their voice and has a seat at the table. I encourage everyone to play their part in making this the best county in Texas!
