As a life-long resident of the area, and Richmond homeowner for the last 13 years, I've seen a lot of things change; most of it for the worse.

I decided to start getting involved after the budget crisis but attending local meetings wasn't enough so I ended up joining the Richmond Police Commission. In my 2 years on the Police Commission, I've been absolutely blown away by the senseless violence that I've seen.

I'm prepared to make a stand against the gun toting thugs that are taking over our city but I can't do it alone, and that's why I'm asking for your vote. I promise that if elected, I will make the tough decisions that will allow us to take our city back which will eventually allow businesses to move back into town and provide good jobs to our residents.

Richmond is a wonderful place with huge potential...Its not too late.
