Issue Position

Collaborative partnerships promote economic growth and development.

Strong communities are the cornerstone of economic growth. We need to ensure that our local leaders are empowered to retain and expand high paying jobs, and that our people are empowered with the skills and protections necessary to support themselves and their families.

Workforce development through education and local business partnerships is crucial. Policies to ensure public safety (including those that combat the opiate epidemic), support first responders, and address infrastructure needs -- like access to clean water -- are vital to our community.

I remember when the area north of 161 was largely farmland and when Dublin and Worthington had one high school each. Dublin has considered opening a 4th high school. We have grown exponentially. I will make sure we have the resources needed to maintain the excellence of our communities.
