Thank you for taking the time to visit my website and learn more about my skills and experience, as well as why I want to serve as your Judge. Integrity, respect, experience and hard work are my defining attributes and the ones I wish to continue to demonstrate as your Judge. As a member of the Judiciary, I will ensure that the decisions I make are fully researched, clearly articulated, and applied in a consistent and fair manner in accordance with the law. While the economic downturn has impacted everyone including senior citizens, families, and children, and has presented new challenges for the court system, I wish to utilize my breadth and depth of experience as well as my work ethic to find effective solutions to help the community. It would be an honor for me to be a public servant so that I can work hard every day for each of you.

Public Service is not new to me. In addition to my legal practice, I have had the privilege of serving the community in many ways, including being privileged to be selected as a Pro Tem Justice of the Peace, Pro Tem Small Claims Referee, and Court Appointed Arbitrator. I have also donated my skills, time and resources to a variety of pro bono and charitable endeavors. These judicial and real life experiences have provided me with the foundation necessary to be a well-reasoned and capable District Court Judge.

I believe that my experience has given me the ability and strength to make tough decisions, and my active involvement in pro bono work, including representing abused and neglected children and others less fortunate, has inspired me to work diligently in order to make a difference. I truly care about our community; I grew up here, I am raising my family here, and am looking forward to serving as your Judge. I will ensure a fair, well-reasoned and ethical court and would appreciate your support.
