Emmett Spurlock

I’ve proudly called Fayetteville home since 2006, where I live with my wife, Bridgette Simon. Together, we have a close-knit family of four children, five grandchildren, and four beloved fur babies. I’m a retired U.S. Army Lieutenant Colonel with over 20 years of service, including leadership roles in strategic planning, multinational operations, and mission coordination. My military career took me across the globe—serving in regions such as Afghanistan, Pakistan, and the Middle East—where I worked alongside allied forces, built partnerships, and led teams through complex, high-stakes situations. That experience taught me the value of discipline, teamwork, and listening to the people you serve. Outside of public service, I enjoy life on the open road with my motorcycles and RV, and I take great pride in Bridgette’s restored 1941 Lincoln Zephyr.

Wants to protect "small-town charm," support local businesses, and expand green spaces while ensuring balanced and thoughtful growth.
