Why should voters choose you?

I have dedicated my legal career to representing some of the most vulnerable individuals in our community, helping them navigate our legal system so they can achieve better outcomes for themselves and their families. Through my years of experience and deep roots in Bexar County, I have developed an extensive knowledge of the issues our neighbors face. On the bench, I will leverage my commitment, dedication and expertise to serving the people of Bexar County.

We need to address this issue head-on by advocating for and securing more resources for the court and by implementing efficiency measures to ensure that justice is administered swiftly and effectively.
