THIS IS MY COMMUNITY
In 2003, my wife, Mariya, and I chose Plano and Collin County as our new home to start a family, just as have people from all around the world, making Collin County one of the fastest-growing counties in the country. What we have here is worth fighting to preserve. It's for that reason I am involved in government and served on Plano City Council. In my career as a consultant, I've helped Forune 1000 companies solve some of their toughest challenges. I am a Christian conservative and am passionate about promoting liberty and self-governance.
PROMISES MADE, PROMISES KEPT
I officially fulfilled all of my campaign promises a little over one year into my first term on council, and that was just a warm-up. I ran on several key things, but it’s important to note that these accomplishments were a team effort. I’m just one vote in eight, and I couldn’t have done it alone. My deepest thanks to the council members and staff who made it happen. See the issues I'm championing that are important to YOU here.
