Let’s Build a Better Experience for Taxpayers

My career has been about delivering results — building systems that work, improving how government serves, and always putting the public first. As Commissioner of the Revenue, I’ll bring that same drive to Fredericksburg: modern tools, transparent processes, and a commitment to serving everyone with fairness and respect.

Let’s move forward together — with leadership that understands both the details and the bigger picture.

Join the campaign, share your ideas, and let’s continue to build a bright future for Fredericksburg.
