Your Voice, Your Community
Sierra County District 2 spans a diverse and wide-reaching landscape, and the needs of each community: from Sierra City & Verdi to Loyalton & Sierraville - All are Unique. To better serve our residents, we’re gathering input tailored to each area.
This short survey takes just a few minutes, but it helps ensure your priorities are heard and acted on.
Why I'm running for supervisor
This campaign is about more than a seat on the Board – it’s about investing in Sierra County and the people who call it home. For me, this is a commitment to serve the residents who live, work, and raise families here, and to ensure they have a leader who listens, brings people together, and helps move real solutions forward.
Our county is at an important moment. We are navigating challenges tied to emergency services, wildfire prevention and responsible land management, housing, healthcare access, and the rising cost of rural living – while also working to protect the character and traditions that make Sierra County special.
I am a Navy veteran and a small business owner who knows that "hope" is not a strategy. We need to stabilize our essential services, organize our local economic councils, and secure the funding that has bypassed our district for too long. My focus is steady, practical leadership rooted in service.
This effort is powered by neighbors, volunteers, and community members who care deeply about Sierra County’s future. Together, we believe in transparent, accessible leadership that supports families, values our workforce, and honors our heritage while preparing for what comes next. A community that stops growing becomes a memory. We can honor our history while building a future where families, seniors, and businesses can thrive together.
I’m here to serve the people of Sierra County – and to help ensure this remains a place where people can live, work, and build their futures.
Let’s get to work.
