"I’ve worked with the State of Colorado and the Treasurer’s office on a number of financial matters. Over the years I’ve found countless areas of government waste and mismanagement of taxpayer funds. Too often the right solution has been dismissed by the inertia of bureaucracy and the Treasurer has failed to act. So I’ve decided the way I can contribute most to restoring fiscal discipline in State government is to take a break from the private sector and run for State Treasurer."
