My reason for running for Mayor is my deisre to contibute to the local process of government. It is my belief that I have the ability and willingness to bring tp all citizens a government that represents them, local businesses, and special interest groups in a fair and equal manner.

I envision a city where all of its citizens can truly strive for their potential while living in one of the best areas of the world. A city of prosperity and growth. Providing safety (in all aspects of the meaning.) bringing jobsto the city (encouraging businesses to come to Lubbock and assisting those already here to expand,) and ensuring local youth receives the opportunity to work in various career fields during summers, or in some other endeavor that would enlighten them and build their self esteem. Today's youth is only a step away from being the leaders of Lubbock and the world.

Every individual vote counts and if I were elected, I can only promise you a mayor who would do the best for all.
