What are the top issues facing this district/board and how would you work to resolve them?
I think one of the big issues with the Monroe City Council is that you have people on their that all they want is notoriety at the expense of making the best decision for the constituents of their ward. If I'm elected I can assure you that my decisions won't be made in order to gain notoriety but instead be the best decision for those individuals that voted for me.
What are other key issues facing the district/board, and how would you work to resolve them?
I think another big issue for Monroe in general is brain drain. If I'm elected I will do my best to work with other organizations to make Monroe an attractive place for business. We all know that it is a great place to live, but we need places for the younger generations to work if we expect them to return home.
Why are you the best candidate for this office?
I feel that my experience in customer service will serve me very well if I am elected to Ward 3 Alderperson. I feel my ability to serve customers now will translate to the world of being an elected official since you are still serving those who voted for you.
