Mission Statement
The City of Pueblo exists to serve its citizens by exemplifying and embracing Justice, Safety, and Efficiency by fostering an environment of diversity, community culture and effective use of resources. The City of Pueblo will strive to provide the best possible services to its residents. The board of Commissioners, City Council and employees of the city departments will work hard to ensure that the city provides quality and efficient service to its residents.
Qualifications
I will continue on learning and developing strong skills and abilities to help move Pueblo in the right direction. My time, my purpose and my life will largely be dedicated to serving Pueblo. Also my experience of putting others 1st, loyalty, commitment will be a priority.
​
I am looking forward to becoming your Mayor for the City of Pueblo, Colorado. My strong work ethics from childhood to now have been maximized throughout my life to serve others! I have a track record of serving in many communities, as well as serving independently here in Pueblo.
My Goals
I will remain goal oriented. I have a vision for our youth. They are by far the greatest investment in our lives. We will help each child become the best he or she can become, and you always have great leaders.
The goal of the city budget is to evaluate and direct departments, helping them make successful decisions in resource allocations, program evaluations, financial management and long-term planning. I would like to have our taxpayers be proud to be citizens of Pueblo, by cleaning up the city first and make it the best in Colorado. I will have spiritual, political and business leaders instrumental in helping to clean up crime and corruption in this community - a city wide project and help with other necessary projects.
I will regularly communicate with the heads of each city department as well as hold community meetings to communicate and establish a strong working relationship with the public as well as better understand the citizens of Pueblo.
​
If there are any city employees who are wasting money at the expense of the taxpayer, I will address these issues even if it's necessary to terminate a particular position. As well as curtail any credit card abuse done by city employees. Taxpayer's money will not be spent on just a specific area and location in Pueblo.
​​I have a vision for the economy as well. I have experience in many areas including: spiritual, political and business. Leaders will be contacted, as Pueblo will be enhanced in many positive ways, to move forward in growth.
​
One project that I have in mind, which is health related, would be adding into the economy of Pueblo of approximately $38,220,000 in one year, and that's only one project that I believe would be lucrative for the economy.
​
Our Veteran's complaints need to be addressed, including medical concerns, compensation, and supplying them with adequate housing.
​
Our seniors, disabled, mentally challenged and youths are the most vulnerable of our population and are deserving of our immediate attention. All Puebloans will be included.
