Thank you, Collin County!

Dear friends:

February 2025 update:
I am delighted and honored to be able to serve as a Collin College Trustee for a THIRD term!  It has been an absolute honor to be able to serve the citizens of Collin County and the larger Collin College community as an elected representative on the board of the college – and steadfastly pursue the mission of making higher education accessible and affordable for as many people in Collin county (and surrounding service areas) who choose to attend the college.

I was first appointed to the “Place 5” seat on the Collin County Community College District Board of Trustees in November of 2016.  Subsequently, I was elected (unooposed) for the first time in May 2017. 

Then, in May 2019, I was re-elected (unopposed, again) to a second term and I am currently serving the full six-year term in office.  My colleagues on the board, also elected me to serve as an Officer on the board in the role of Board Treasurer.

I hope to keep guiding Collin College‘s unparalleled progress in creating student success and building the workforce of the future and to continue my service to the community. Thank you all for your continued support.

Let me take a moment to share with you my vision for Collin College, and the reason I am serving as your current Collin College Trustee, in Place 5.

There are three phrases people in the community use most when describing me:

• Strategic Thinker
• Consensus Builder
• Community Leader

Those phrases have rung true, throughout my history in Collin County. Not only in serving you as a current member of the Collin College Board of Trustees, but also in service on many local boards and committees within the county. I am committed to continuing to demonstrate those qualities as your Collin College Trustee, Place 5.

Let me explain.

A passion for community service and higher education and a vision for Collin College that will ultimately make Collin County a better place are two of the main reasons for me to serve in this position.

My experience in working out differences and helping to build consensus has been a hallmark of my civic service. I consider myself very fortunate to be living and working in Collin County – consistently rated one of the best places in the country to live, work, and play; and I want to deliver the best of my capabilities and experience to make this a better community for all.

Remember to follow me on Facebook and on Twitter. I look forward to keeping the conversation going, and to your continued support.

Towards a better future for all of us in North Texas,
