My Key Issues
RESIDENTS FIRST
Our residents are not a piggy bank. Your quality of life, stability, and peace of mind are the very foundation of a strong Hamilton County. As your County Commissioner, I believe my primary duty is to represent you—and that means putting RESIDENTS FIRST in every single decision. When our families simply cannot afford more levies, it is our duty to find affordable, innovative solutions that strengthen our households without adding financial strain. To me, real leadership is about improving your life, not increasing your burdens. Let's work together to build a stronger, more stable community where our families can thrive.
FISCAL RESPONSIBILITY - SHOULDN'T BE A PUNCH LINE
As your next County Commissioner, I believe we must stop buying what we want and begging for what we need. Right now, our priorities are upside down. When the county budgets zero dollars for Children's Services while pledging over three hundred million dollars to the Bengals, we have lost our way. Being a good steward of your hard-earned tax dollars means prioritizing our real obligations. Our county is required to fund public health, safety, facilities, and vital social welfare programs. Everything else is discretionary—and that includes funding stadiums, subsidizing private businesses, and welfare for the wealthy. To me, fiscal responsibility isn't a punchline. It means getting back to the basics, funding our required duties, and providing you, our residents, with what you actually need first and foremost.
PUBLIC INFRASTRUCTURE IS WOEFULLY NEGLECTED
For decades, our public infrastructure has been neglected, and our families are paying the price. I see homes and businesses flooding, roads pitted with potholes, and a landfill leaking radioactive waste into our rivers. We are even under a consent decree for our storm and sewer services. Yet, while our basic needs go unmet, public funds are poured into private projects—like stadiums receiving funding nearly equal to our entire annual discretionary budget. As your representative, I will fight to put our community first. I will call for a moratorium on these tax breaks and incentives for wealthy businesses before we ever ask our residents to pay more. It is time to invest in the basic, reliable infrastructure that keeps our neighborhoods safe, healthy, and strong.
"COMMERCIAL SPRAWL"
I believe that growth for its own sake is not progress. Right here in Hamilton County, we are seeing the consequences of unchecked commercial sprawl, which has repeatedly left us with empty storefronts and made existing spaces obsolete. At the same time, commercialized housing has made home ownership unfeasible and renting unaffordable for so many of our neighbors. We must protect the unique character of our neighborhoods. That is why I am committed to pursuing smart, measured growth—growth that always puts our residents first. If you elect me, I will fight to ensure our development serves the people who actually live here, keeping our community strong, affordable, and vibrant for everyone.
POLITICAL STAGNATION
I am an advocate, not a politician. Advocates fight for their people, and that is exactly what I plan to do for our county.. Right now, a deep political stagnation is holding us back. When we see one-party dominance locally and a super majority in the statehouse, corruption thrives, deficits dominate, and there is no accountability to the public. While some leaders focus on serving political interests, our residents are left holding the bag. I am running to break this stagnation and challenge the status quo. I am not interested in political contributions, cashing a paycheck, or starting a political career. I am here to do what advocates do: give our residents a real voice, demand accountability, and actually fix the problems we face. Let’s move past the stagnation and build a county where leadership truly serves the public good.
