My Plans For Mableton
"I'm running for City Council because Mableton is my home, and I believe in its potential. We have a strong, proud community, and together, we can make it even better.
With our proximity to Atlanta, major highways, and, community profile, Mableton is ready to grow. My vision is for us to build a city we can all be proud of—one that is safe, walkable, and thriving. I want to protect the character our neighborhoods, revitalize blighted areas, expand entertainment options, support our schools, and drive economic development that brings in new businesses, amenities, and job opportunities. And I will do it with a commitment to transparency, responsible spending, and sustainability.
Most importantly, we deserve a Mableton that embraces us at every stage of life—whether you're just starting out, raising a family, or aging gracefully in place.
Together, we can create the Mableton that we deserve, a place where we can live, work, play and thrive."
