With a background in business, throughout my whole life I have lived within a budget and never spent money I didn't have. I have helped others by coaching kids, giving lessons, and encouraging others in business. I am now hoping to help the people of Longmont by reducing our budget, reducing taxes, punishing criminals, requiring the homeless to start helping themselves (whenever possible), protecting kids in school, and making schools do a better job of educating our children for the real world.
