He is committed to listening to residents, solving practical problems, and making decisions that strengthen Knoxville’s neighborhoods and quality of life. His priorities include responsible growth, historic preservation, attainable housing, public safety, responsible budgeting, and continued investment in sidewalks, parks, greenways, and basic infrastructure.
