Experience
While with Madison County, I administered the four county enterprise zones, as well as numerous grants that helped the citizens of Madison County. Through this, I met with numerous economic developers and made long-standing relationships. With the experience I gained through training, education and relationships, I hope to bring professionally managed growth to the City of Edwardsville.
