In the room, on your side.

Mike has called Central Texas home for about 17 years — long enough to know this is a place you choose. He's raised a family and started businesses here, and people tend to describe him as "in the know": the guy who knows who you need to call when there's a problem, a concern, or a decision that actually matters.

He's also the kind of person who genuinely wants to see others succeed. Whether he's making an introduction, offering practical advice, or quietly backing someone else's vision, he's consistently encouraging and generous with his time.

What he does best is connect people and ideas. He's not afraid to say, "You're wrong — but here's what you don't know yet," in a way that opens doors and brings people together instead of blowing up the room.

Camy grew up in Central Texas in a family where public service and civic life weren't abstract ideas — they were everyday conversation. A mom first (and a bit of a momma bear about her kids, the schools, and the future of this county), she's served on local boards and helped build community groups connecting thousands of families across the region.

What she's learned is that real progress happens in relationships — knowing the people, understanding how decisions get made, and being willing to say the hard thing when it needs to be said. Today she works behind the scenes on local campaigns and community efforts, helping leaders stay connected to the people they serve.
