“Years ago when I was sworn in as a new attorney, I took an oath to support the U.S. and Texas Constitutions. I plan to extend that oath as Wood County judge, serving the citizens of Wood County. With both business and legal experience, I have the ability to administer the financial duties as chief budget officer for the county. I will work with our county commissioners and county officials to make prudent decisions with taxpayer money. As a practicing attorney, I am prepared to make legal decisions concerning misdemeanors, probate court, and the mental health docket.”
