As a lifelong resident of Fort Scott, it is a pleasure to work for this beautiful city and to help build a brighter future for the town I love by working side by side with the staff of the City of Fort Scott and its citizens. Communication is key to our success, and I will do my best to let the citizens know of any changes or happenings that are going on in their city. Progress is happening in Fort Scott, and it is a mission statement of mine to make sure we continue to go in a positive direction and fix the negatives. We will have a plan working towards the goals that are set for us by the commission. In our motto #togetherwecan, it is true no one person can do as much as group of people, so that is why we look towards the citizens of Fort Scott to help us grow.”
