Mayor’s Office


Welcome, and thank you for visiting my Mayor’s page.

It is a privilege to serve the residents of Ranson as Mayor. As a believer in public service, I view this role not as a position of authority, but as a responsibility to listen, lead, and work alongside our community to address challenges and pursue opportunities.

Ranson is a city with a proud history and a promising future. As one of the fastest-growing communities in our region, we must balance thoughtful development with the preservation of the character, values, and quality of life that make our city a place people are proud to call home.

My approach to leadership is guided by four principles: respect, integrity, accountability, and transparency. I believe residents deserve a government that is accessible, responsive, and committed to serving the public interest. While not every decision will be easy or universally popular, every decision should be made with honesty, professionalism, and the long-term interests of our community in mind.

Together, we will continue working to strengthen public safety, improve infrastructure, support economic opportunity, enhance recreational amenities, and ensure Ranson remains a great place to live, work, and invest.

I welcome your questions, ideas, and feedback. Open communication is essential to effective local government, and I encourage residents to remain engaged in the future of our city.

Thank you for the opportunity to serve.
