Putting Clawson First

The most important message I’ve heard from our neighbors is simple: people want leaders who put the community first- not Politics, not who yells the loudest at council meetings. Residents want steady, thoughtful decisions that benefit the majority of Clawson residents.

The challenge is making sure every concern is heard, while also being honest about the realities—our current laws, budget limits, or other constraints may not always allow the city to act exactly as some would like. Clear communication matters, especially in today’s world of social media noise and competing news sources.

That’s why I believe in Clawson First. To me, that means focusing on what truly strengthens our community and improves the quality of life for the next generation. It means leadership that tells the truth instead of making empty promises.

This isn’t the easy path—it’s a responsible one. And I believe Clawson deserves leaders who are willing to take it.
