Let's Create Alachua's Future Together

I support smart, calculated development that strengthens our economy while preserving the character and feel of our community. We can welcome progress without sacrificing our neighborhoods, our natural resources, or our quality of life. Growth done right benefits everyone.

A strong downtown strengthens the entire community. Revitalization means supporting local businesses, encouraging responsible redevelopment, improving walkability, and creating spaces that attract families and visitors alike. It’s not about overbuilding, it’s about thoughtful investment that reflects who we are.

I believe growth and conservation must go hand in hand. That means responsible land use, protecting waterways, and ensuring development decisions consider the long-term environmental impact. If we want a resilient, healthy community tomorrow, we must be good stewards today.

Integrity means doing the right thing—even when met with opposition. Transparency means ALL of our neighbors have equal access to information and understand the process of how local government works.

Leadership is about collaboration, not division. We’re not all going to agree, and that’s ok. Open communication and transparency is vital for growth.
