I’m running for Prince George’s County Council District 9 because I believe in a future where every neighborhood thrives—where smart growth, strong communities, and bold leadership drive our county forward.
I know Prince George’s County’s challenges and its promise. We’ve got the talent, the heart, and the history to lead the region in innovation, opportunity, and quality of life. But we need leaders who will listen, lead, and fight for the people—not for politics.
I’ve lived the values of accountability and service my entire life — as a U.S. Air Force veteran, careers in law enforcement, emergency manager, housing advocacy, and acquisition specialist overseeing how government spends your money.
I’m running for County Council because District 9 deserves more than excuses. We deserve results. I’ll bring watchdog-level oversight, a veteran’s discipline, and an emergency manager’s readiness to lead in moments big and small.
Prince George’s County has every resource to thrive; strong families, diverse neighborhoods, a rich history, and unmatched potential. Yet too often, mismanagement, wasteful spending, and short-sighted planning have held us back.
It doesn’t have to be this way. With disciplined budgeting, thoughtful growth, and leadership that shows up and listens, we can deliver results that actually improve daily life.

Strengthen first responders, promote prevention programs, invest in preventative care & reducing hospital wait-times and make mental health a core part of community life.
Every tax dollar must be spent wisely, transparently, and with a clear return for our communities.
Attract employers and industries that match District 9’s strengths — from modern agriculture, healthcare and logistics to clean energy and innovation — so residents can work where they live and grow their careers right here.
Growth should start by taking care of what we already have. That means reinvesting in aging roads, schools, and public facilities, revitalizing underused properties, and pairing new development with infrastructure upgrades. Existing neighborhoods must benefit, not get left behind.
Safe, reliable, accessible transit connects people to jobs, schools, healthcare, and opportunity. Reducing household transportation costs, easing congestion, and giving residents real alternatives to sitting in traffic.
From our open spaces to our cultural history, we’ll use smart policy to preserve our quality of life while creating new opportunities.
I bring a lifetime commitment to integrity, accountability, and public service. My background includes serving as a U.S. Air Force veteran, working in law enforcement and emergency management, advocating for housing, and overseeing government acquisition processes—giving me firsthand insight into how public funds are managed and protected.
District 9 needs leadership that listens, shows up, and delivers—not empty promises. Sherman brings integrity, accountability, and a real commitment to serving our community.
