My time in the U.S. Navy and my 30-year career in law enforcement have taught me how to be a servant leader, and I hope to continue with your vote and support.

I will continue to lead with integrity, equality, and respect for all views while upholding the law and protecting our citizens. Thurston County is my home; where my kids grew up, my grandkids live, my friends, and you the citizens, so it is my mission to keep it safe. 

I am honored and humbled to lead the employees of the Thurston County Sheriff's Office for the last 12 years. The law enforcement profession has seen significant changes in the previous two years; as a result, I have worked hard. along with my agency to make adjustments while maintaining the highest level of professionalism.
