A note from Will

Our moment begins.

Thank you, Montgomery County. I’m honored by your trust and ready to serve every resident, in every community.

Together, we can build a county where families can afford to stay, young people have opportunities to thrive, seniors can retire with dignity, and everyone feels safe, respected, and at home. That work begins with a government that listens and turns our shared priorities into action.

Help shape what comes next. Share your ideas, meet the transition team, and explore opportunities to serve.
