Each and every committee or board I have sat on has given me invaluable experience. The contacts I have made enable me to go out into the community and feel very comfortable. While I am still new, I feel that I can help make a difference in a very positive way for the community and those who live and work here.

I think it's extremely important that we make sure the companies and businesses already here are getting our full support. I am making sure my door is always open to them. I will do whatever I can to make sure they remain a viable part of this community.

I know that not all of them will come to fruition, but we are working hard to bring as many as possible. We're at various stages of interest right now and we'll just see what happens. We all want to be positive and keep plugging away.
