Candidate Bio

My objective is to represent the interests of New Hanover County voters as their commissioner.

I believe good financial management leads to good government. I champion civil liberties, natural law, and the non-aggression principle. My values also reflect ethics, integrity, and compassion. On key issues like public debt and rising taxes, I stand in opposition to the two major political parties, who just increase both. Unaffiliated, third-party, and independent voters are looking for a better answer, and it is crucial that we give them qualified, competent candidates to support.
