Thank you for your continued support and your interest in the upcoming election. I am proud to be your County Commissioner! For more than 17 years now I've worked hard to create new jobs and opportunities for our citizens and businesses. I've used my voice to help expand our parks, to protect our farms and to provide compassionate care for our seniors. I've worked diligently to preserve and steward our natural resources and to be the voice of reason and resourcefulness. Above all I have worked to protect your tax dollars and your investment in our community.
"As a life-long resident of Portage County, I'm just like you."
I work full time, juggle all the needs of my personal and professional life, and take a great deal of pride in mycommunity, my work and my family. With your help we've created a much stronger Portage County than the one I inherited over 13 years ago when I arrived in the Commissioners' office. I helped to fix a monstrous investment problem that surfaced a few short weeks after my arrival. I helped to write and create a set of investment policies that became a model for county investment reform throughout the state. I'm proud of that.
