ISSUES
Public Safety Comes First
Our police and first responders are the backbone of a safe community. I’ll ensure they have the resources, training, and support they need to keep Port St. Lucie one of Florida’s safest cities. That means investing in technology, staffing, and strong partnerships to prevent crime and respond quickly when help is needed.
Keeping Taxes Low &
Government Efficient
Taxpayers deserve to know their money is being used wisely. That’s why I’ll fight to keep taxes low while making city government more efficient and transparent. We can cut waste, improve services, and streamline operations without asking residents to pay more. I’ll bring a business-minded approach to city hall - focused on results, not red tape.
Fixing Traffic &
Improving Infrastructure
From Port St. Lucie Blvd. to St. Lucie West, traffic is a daily frustration. I’ll push for smarter traffic planning, faster road improvements, and coordination with county and state partners to get projects moving. We need more turn lanes, synchronized signals, and common-sense upgrades that reduce congestion and improve safety for everyone on the road.
Smart Growth & Accountability
Port St. Lucie is growing fast - but growth must be guided by common sense, not special interests. I’ll hold developers accountable, ensure new projects pay their fair share, and demand that development happens only when roads, schools, and public safety can keep up. We need thoughtful planning that protects our neighborhoods, preserves our quality of life, and prevents overcrowding before it happens.
Protecting Green Space & Conservation Lands
As our city grows, so should our commitment to protecting nature. I support acquiring conservation lands, expanding parks, and preserving green space for future generations. These efforts not only protect wildlife and water quality, but they also provide families with places to play, relax, and connect with the outdoors.
Supporting Seniors with Real Services
Port St. Lucie is home to a large and growing senior population. I’ll work to expand services like transportation, wellness programs, and housing options so seniors can age in place with dignity. We owe it to those who built this community to make sure they have the support they need to thrive.
