Leadership that Listens,
Action that Matters
District A has experienced limited representation over the past two years. With over 23 years of experience in civil engineering, I am well-equipped to tackle the pressing flooding and drainage issues that our community faces. These problems have been neglected for far too long, and I am committed to bringing them to the forefront. My goal is to improve the quality of life in District A and ensure that these long-standing issues are finally addressed.
