I want to express my sincere gratitude to the people of Martin County for their overwhelming support during my campaign. Your votes and the encouragement of everyone who stood by me drove our collective success. This election was not just about me; it was about our community and the future of our wonderful county. I am eager to listen to your feedback, work for you, and enhance our county's quality of life.

Thank you to Doug Smith for serving our community. Ordinary people's willingness to devote their time and energy to improving the lives of others is the cornerstone of our democracy. It is through their dedication that our community thrives.

To the other newly elected officials, the dedicated staff, and those already serving our county, I look forward to exchanging ideas and working towards guiding our community towards a positive and prosperous future. I am eager to contribute to the betterment and preservation of our county and am committed to working diligently alongside each of you.

As we approach the general election, I remind you that we have not entirely crossed the finish line. I ask again for your support in defeating the write-in candidate in November.

Thank you for the opportunity to serve, and I look forward to the work we will accomplish together.

Over-development and over-taxation have become pressing issues in Martin County, which is why I have decided to run for commissioner. The current path we are on is not sustainable for our community. As your commissioner, I am committed to setting us on the road to slow down the out-of-control spending and altering our landscape. I will work tirelessly to strike a balance between responsible development and preserving the natural beauty of Martin County. Moreover, I will advocate for fair and reasonable taxation policies that support local businesses and ease the burden on our residents. Together, we can protect our quality of life and create a sustainable future for future generations.

Florida's battle with the sway of developers and the surging influx of new residents is exerting immense pressure on our commissioners. Driven by apprehension, our commissioners are yielding to these pressures. It is crucial to retain control over development, urge planners to resist zoning changes and inspire landowners to explore all options within the comprehensive plan. We must consider the long-term repercussions of our decisions today and stand firm in our approach when approving applications and throughout the planning process. We must stay consistent in our efforts to ensure sustainable and responsible development for Martin's future.

Growing up in Martin County gave me a perspective of what quality of life truly means. I wish to preserve it for all of us.
