Keep Talent in Frisco Nearly 80% of residents work from home or leave the city to work. We must attract top-tier companies offering career-ready, high-paying jobs — so our kids can build their futures right here in Frisco.
No Tax Increases. Full Transparency. Every contract should be visible. Every expense justified. Every decision in service of the public — not private interests. Responsible spending means restoring confidence through action, not words.
Open Conversations. No Closed Doors. Major decisions belong on the public dais — where residents can see who’s voting, why, and how it affects them. No showmanship. No secrecy. Accountability is built in the open.
Safety Is Not Political. It’s Essential. Frisco’s reputation as one of the safest cities in America didn’t happen by accident. I will fully fund our police, fire, and first responders — and ensure infrastructure keeps pace with our city’s growth.
Growth That Serves Residents First Development decisions must prioritize quality of life, protect school zones, support small businesses, and improve traffic and mobility — not serve special interests behind closed doors.
A Permanent Solution, Done Right Frisco deserves a full-service municipal animal shelter — with adoptions, fostering, and community education. Any decision must be grounded in a thorough, independent needs assessment. Our pets and families deserve careful study and responsible investment.
