Thanks for visiting our new campaign website! I hope you’ll use this site to learn more about my vision for Lexington, stay updated with our campaign, volunteer to help, and if you can, contribute financially to help lift us to victory on May 18 and beyond!

Since I announced for Mayor in December, I've been inspired and encouraged by the enthusiastic support of folks all across our fine city.

Three years as Vice-Mayor and 36 years in business have given me a unique perspective on our city, our people, and the leadership Lexington needs. These are uniquely challenging and uncertain times for folks everywhere, even in Lexington.

My 36 years in the private sector has involved working with my family and an extraordinary team of folks to build Gray Construction. Starting from a small company in a basement office in Glasgow, I opened our Lexington office in 1983, and now we're proud to call Lexington our home today.

Yes, I know how to create jobs in the business world.

But beyond that, in three years as Vice-Mayor, I've followed my oath to put taxpayers and citizens first; and I've spoken out vigorously for accountability and transparency in City Hall.

In these last three years, since the last election in 2006, we've witnessed scandal and out-of-control spending at our public agencies. We've witnessed failed leadership in the CentrePointe development, leaving a hole in the center of our city. And we’ve witnessed how bad decisions, avoidable and preventable decisions, have cost us millions of dollars, pride in our city, and confidence in Lexington's future.

In challenging and uncertain economic times like these, we need a Mayor with vision, and the unique blend of business and government experience that's required to bring our city together and move it forward. That's exactly the kind of Mayor I'm prepared to be, and that's exactly why I’m running.

We need a fresh start. Lexington needs a new mayor.

Thanks for your support.

All the best,
