My Priorities

Common Sense leadership for ALL of Prosper

Listen

Good decisions start with hearing from residents—not as an afterthought, but from the beginning. Your voice should shape outcomes before votes are taken.

Plan

Build it right the first time. Size projects correctly from the start. Think long-term so we're not fixing mistakes or asking for more money later.

Protect

Prosper isn't just another suburb—it's Friday night football under the lights, Small Town, Big Heart, and downtown festivals that bring neighbors together.

About Doug

I moved to Prosper 20 years ago for the same reasons you probably did—great schools, safe neighborhoods, and room to raise a family. I've served on the Planning & Zoning Commission, worked on the 2020 Bond Committee, and led the Windsong Ranch PISD annexation effort.

Prosper has grown from a small town to one of the fastest-growing communities in Texas. Thousands of new families have settled here—but too many decisions are still being made by a small group without meaningful input from the residents they affect. Whether you've been here 20 years or 2 months, you deserve a voice. That's why I'm running.

Local races are decided by a few hundred votes. Your support—and your voice—can make the difference.
