What is your top priority if elected to represent the citizens of Katy?

My top priority if elected, will be to work collaboratively with council, city staff, and most importantly, the residents of Katy to improve the overall quality of life in the city. This would include working on public safety, aging infrastructure, responsible growth, resource management, while maintaining our historical pride.

My top priority is strengthening Katy’s infrastructure, especially water systems and flood preparedness. Residents depend on reliable services during both droughts and heavy storms. Planning, maintaining infrastructure and ensuring emergency readiness will help protect homes, businesses and public safety altogether.

My top priority is supporting our local small businesses and preserving the culture that built Katy. Entrepreneurs invested here long before Katy became what it is today, and we must remember that. We must also stay focused on critical needs like drainage and infrastructure to protect homes and growth.

My top priority is responsible growth— improving infrastructure, public safety and city services while protecting taxpayers. We must plan ahead so Katy grows smart, not fast and ensure Ward A residents see real results from their tax dollars.
