The Register of Wills office is often the first stop for families during some of life’s most difficult moments. Residents deserve an office that operates with clarity, compassion, and speed. I will modernize and streamline processes—whether it’s filing documents, making payments, or navigating probate—to reduce confusion and save families valuable time. Clear communication, digital improvements, and user-friendly guidance will ensure every resident experiences a smoother, more transparent process.

The work of the Register of Wills touches every family at a deeply personal time, and it requires a standard of integrity that cannot be compromised. As Register, I will lead with fairness, accountability, and respect for every resident. Professionalism isn’t just about how the office functions—it’s about how people feel when they walk through the door. I will set the tone by ensuring that all staff are trained to provide compassionate service, uphold ethical practices, and create an environment that reflects the dignity of the work we do.

With over 593,000 residents, Anne Arundel County deserves a Register of Wills office that is not only efficient but also accessible to all. Many families are unfamiliar with probate and estate processes until they’re suddenly faced with them. I will prioritize proactive education by hosting community workshops, offering multilingual resources, and expanding online access. My goal is to make sure no one feels left behind—whether you live in South County, Annapolis, Glen Burnie, or beyond. This office should be a true community resource, empowering residents with the knowledge and support they need.
