What is the one thing that stands out to you as a success for Sun Corridor Inc. over its 20 years? 

One major stand-out success for Sun Corridor over its 20-year history is its effective role in driving economic transformation for Southern Arizona by attracting diverse industries and high-quality jobs. Through strategic initiatives in sectors like aerospace, healthcare, logistics, and technology, Sun Corridor has played a vital role in diversifying and strengthening our regional economy. Our collaborative approach engaging businesses, educational institutions, and local governments has significantly enhanced the region’s economic profile, making it a competitive and attractive destination for investment and talent. Also, Sun Corridor has done a terrific job at building strong relationships with site selectors and highlighting our culture, arts, and climate to attract investment. I am excited to see what the next 20 years will bring!

Why are you involved in Sun Corridor Inc?

I engage in Sun Corridor to serve our community in a way that creates maximum positive impact. The decisions we make today will affect future generations, so we have an obligation to set them up for success. Seeing the results of Sun Corridor’s efforts has been rewarding, and meeting various stakeholders throughout the community has helped me gain tremendous knowledge and understanding. One of the highlights of my involvement are the new relationships that I have gained. Meeting community leaders, volunteers and other CEOs has only strengthened my commitment to the mission of Sun Corridor. 

What is the biggest opportunity for the region? 

I believe the biggest opportunity for Tucson and Southern Arizona lies in expanding its thriving aerospace, smart technology, and mining technology sectors. With established infrastructure and partnerships with educational institutions, the region is well-positioned to attract high-tech industries, supporting long-term job growth and economic resilience. We must continue to expand the availability of large industrial sites, specialized workforce programs, and major logistics routes that access Mexico, California, and Texas. This will further enhance Tucson’s appeal to investors inside and outside of Arizona. This growth potential offers a solid foundation for building a technology-driven, sustainable economy that leverages regional assets and advances quality of life. Our future is bright!
