After much prayer and consideration, I have decided to end my Tulsa mayoral bid. I want to express my deepest gratitude to each and every person who played a role in my campaign, from the tireless volunteers and generous donors to my incredible wife Sandy and dedicated campaign team. This has been a very difficult decision. It’s my understanding a very qualified individual is preparing to announce his candidacy.

I will continue to focus on my wealth management practice and community engagement after my council term ends, and I will continue to serve the constituents of District 9 to the very last day and to the best of my ability. It’s been a sincere pleasure serving the constituents of District 9 and Tulsa citizens at large. The best is yet to come!
