Strong belief that the citizen tax payers in the Heber/Overgaard Fire District need board members that are providing them with the most professional, effective and efficient fire and emergency medical service possible. The wise and appropriate use of taxpayer money is and should be a board priority.

My commitment is to provide the communities within the fire district with the best trained fire and emergency medical personnel possible. I will ensure that taxpayer money is spent in a responsible and efficient manner.
