Why I’m Running:
Lincoln Airport is an economic driver of our city with an impact of over one billion dollars annually, is credited with creating nearly 9,000 jobs, and attracts over 150,000 visitors yearly. Those are impressive statistics proving that LNK is vital to our community. I am running for the Airport Authority because I believe we have an opportunity to accomplish so much more. As a business owner and avid traveler, I feel our airport is underutilized and underpromoted. If elected, I am committed to being an advocate to encourage people to fly LNK first and I will cultivate partnerships in our community to do the same. I will work to understand the ins and outs of the operation, seek opportunities to enhance land use, employ effective communication with airlines, and connect with individuals and companies in the travel industry to promote grow our airport. I will use my experience as a local business owner, policymaker and advocate, and community volunteer to take our airport to new heights.
