Action, Not Words

In my brief tenure as a councilman, I made it my mission to be a man of action. I didn’t just talk about understanding the process—I underwent the necessary training to grasp the intricacies of governance. I didn't just claim to care about the people of Garwood—I walked every street, seeking to meet and talk with every constituent, not to ask for their vote, but to listen, to understand their concerns, and to serve them. Why? Stopping division in our town was my number one concern. As I spoke with residents, I took action, one step and one knock at a time, to alleviate the issues brought to my attention.
