I’m running for Judge because I believe deeply in the role our courts play in everyday life.
Most people don’t think about the court system until they need it. When that moment comes, they deserve a judge who is prepared, fair, and committed to applying the law consistently and respectfully. I’m running because I know how much those decisions matter and because I have spent my career preparing for this responsibility.
A CAREER ROOTED IN THE LAW AND PUBLIC SERVICE
I have spent decades working in courtrooms across Texas, representing clients, presiding over cases, and navigating complex legal issues. I previously served as an elected Judge, Justice of the Peace in Brazos County, where I presided over civil and criminal matters and managed the daily operations of a courtroom.
That experience gave me a clear understanding of what it takes to run a court efficiently, thoughtfully, and with integrity. I have seen firsthand how judicial decisions affect families, businesses, and our community. I take that responsibility seriously.
HOW I APPROACH THE ROLE OF A JUDGE
I believe a judge’s role is straightforward, but demanding:
- Apply the law fairly and impartially
- Treat every person who enters the courtroom with dignity and respect
- Be prepared for every case
- Maintain independence from politics and outside pressure
Judges should not seek the spotlight. They should seek fairness, consistency, and clarity—regardless of how difficult the decision.
COMMITMENT TO BRAZOS COUNTY
Brazos County is my home. This community has shaped my career, my values, and my understanding of service. I care deeply about maintaining a justice system that reflects the standards and expectations of the people who live and work here.
If elected, my focus will be on running a courtroom that is professional, efficient, and worthy of the public’s trust.
WHY EXPERIENCE MATTERS
Courtrooms are not places for on-the-job training.
Experience matters when evaluating evidence, weighing testimony, managing complex dockets, and making decisions that affect real lives. My background allows me to step into this role prepared on day one to serve Brazos County with steady judgment and respect for the law.
I understand that serving as a judge is a privilege, not a platform. Every case represents a real person, a real problem, and a real outcome. If elected, I will bring fairness, preparation, and integrity to every decision, and I will never forget the responsibility that comes with this role.
Thank you for taking the time to learn more about me and my commitment to justice in Brazos County. I would be honored to have your support in the 2026 Republican Primary.
