Campaign Kickoff
I'd love to meet you!
I've lived in Westcliffe since 2016.
Why would I jump back in to serve as the Sheriff after I just retired from a successful law enforcement career?
What have I done to prepare for the executive role at a law enforcement agency?
Am I the best qualified candidate to serve as Sheriff?
Join me at Tony's to receive answers to all of these questions and more. I look forward to seeing you!
