I am excited to officially announce my 2026 candidacy for Fayette County Revenue Commissioner. As most of you know, I was appointed by the governor to finish out Ruby Porter’s term as Revenue Commissioner back in September of last year. I am so thankful and honored for the opportunity to fill this position.
