involved

Being involved is about being informed...

Public service is more than a job, it is a commitment to involvement.    I am a life long resident of North Hills committed to the success of our youth.   My success can only be credited to quality schools, wise adult leaders and a community rooted in strong morality.   Likewise, I have attempted to model my office with diversionary youth programs which promote responsibility, accountability, and productivity.

It is my desire to continue this focus in my second term as Magisterial District Judge.   I present the following community endeavors for which I
am/have been involved in:
