What I stand for
Integrity & Accountability
The Sheriff’s Office must be held to the highest ethical standards. I believe in leading by example, being transparent with the public, and holding myself and my staff accountable for our actions.
Respect for the Law & the People
Every person deserves to be treated with fairness, dignity, and respect. I am committed to enforcing the law professionally while recognizing the importance of common sense, discretion, and compassion.
Community-Focused Policing
Strong communities are built on trust. I believe the Sheriff’s Office should work with residents, not just respond to them—through visibility, communication, and meaningful community engagement.
Support for Deputies & Staff
Our employees are the backbone of public safety. I support proper training, modern equipment, and a healthy work environment so they can do their jobs safely and effectively.
Public Safety comes First!
Protecting lives and property is the core mission of the Sheriff’s Office. I am committed to proactive policing, responsible use of resources, and preparedness to meet today’s challenges.
Local Values - Local Leadership
Clearwater County deserves leadership that understands rural life, family values, and the unique needs of our communities. I am committed to serving with honesty, dedication, and pride in the county I call home.
