A lifelong resident of Grant County, I understand the values, challenges and opportunities that make our community unique. My background in agriculture and bookkeeping taught me the importance of hard work, responsible stewardship, and careful financial management. I know how to balance a budget, make practical decisions and plan for the future without wasting valuable resources.
I recognize the importance of protecting our rural economy, supporting businesses and preserving values that make Grant County strong. I’ll work to ensure policies support farmers, ranchers, small and large businesses and working families. Government should operate with transparency, accountability and open communication so residents know how decisions are made and how taxpayer dollars are spent.
If elected, I’m committed to honest communication, thoughtful planning and working collaboratively to keep Grant County a great place to live, work and raise a family.
I would be honored to earn your vote for Grant County Commissioner.

I’m running for Grant County Commissioner because I believe local government should be practical, accountable, and closely connected to the people it serves. Grant County was built by hardworking families, agriculture, small businesses, and communities that value responsibility, resilience, and common sense.
As a business owner, school board director, and active community leader, I understand the importance of stewardship and making thoughtful decisions that protect both today’s needs and tomorrow’s opportunities. Grant County is growing, and with that growth comes important choices.
We need leadership that protects our rural way of life while also recognizing opportunities that strengthen our economy, support local jobs, and create lasting prosperity for future generations. I believe in fiscal responsibility, infrastructure, transparency, and ensuring local voices remain at the center of county decisions. We cannot afford to miss opportunities that position Grant County for long-term success while preserving the values that make our communities strong.
