This campaign isn’t about politics or keeping things the same—it’s about clear standards, accountability, and professional public safety leadership.

My Priorities

PUBLIC SAFETY

Reduce crime and drug activity—focused enforcement and proactive prevention, countywide today.

RESPONSE & VISIBILITY

Reliable countywide response—staffing, deployment, coverage planning, and readiness for emergencies always.

CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS

Uphold constitutional rights—fair enforcement with clear standards and visible, proactive policing.

COMMUNITY TRUST

A culture of accountability within the Sheriff’s Office. Transparency, respectful engagement, & regular opportunities for public feedback.

Rooted in Douglas County

I’m a fifth-generation Douglas County resident, raising my family here, and I take the responsibility of protecting our county seriously. I’ve spent my career in public safety, working daily with deputies, first responders, and local leaders. I’ll strengthen what works, fix what needs attention, and lead with independent judgment—focused on readiness, clear expectations, and public confidence.
