I am honored to serve you as your County Supervisor and I thank you for your support.

The last eight years I have used my experience as a certified public accountant, businessman, and farmer to help solve the county’s financial crisis. The county is now financially strong with record investments in roads and infrastructure in our West Modesto and Salida neighborhoods. We are hiring more deputies to combat crime. We have also facilitated the creation of thousands of new jobs by our local businesses.

I will continue to fight the state’s water grab and Modesto’s plan to annex Salida and sprawl onto Wood Colony’s productive farmland. Our new Wood Colony MAC will provide Wood Colony with a powerful unified voice.

My wife Christen and I are proud of our children’s service in the Middle East.  Our children, grandchildren, and all our citizens deserve the high quality of life we enjoyed growing up in Modesto.

That is why I launched Focus on Prevention, which involves our neighborhoods, businesses, churches, and public agencies working together for the first time on innovative solutions to homelessness.  This is a crisis and we must address this issue immediately.

I promise that I will continue to work hard for all of you to make our county a special place.
