It is important that we are set up for success and maintain quality control with our growth.

I love the sense of community that exists here that seems to be such a secret to the rest of the country. While I adore our bright, shimmering lights, it is the glow of lights on ball fields surrounded by families that makes me love our city.

It’s the friendships and the diversity of our backgrounds that make Las Vegas such an incredible place to live.
