I bring a unique blend of military service, community engagement, and legislative expertise. I stand ready to be the unwavering voice our community needs in the Statehouse.
As someone raised on Columbus’ West Side, this community has not only been my home, but my family’s. From fighting for change as a Highland West Civic Association board member to organizing communities for the 2020 Census, the west side is where my roots are.
My life has been dedicated to public service. As an Officer in the Army Reserve, I have sacrificed to proudly serve my nation.
I used my background and undergraduate degree in Social Work to bring vital community resources to central Ohio families. As a staffer in the Ohio Legislature, I tirelessly advocated for the people of central Ohio.- Central Ohio’s west side communities deserve a fierce advocate in the Statehouse. I have dedicated my time and energy to investing in young minds, organizing community cleanups, and serving on the Highland West Civic Association. Now I want to take that commitment to service to the Statehouse to represent our community there.
- As an Officer in the Army Reserve, I have sacrificed to proudly serve my nation and learned leadership skills I want to put to use as State Representative.
- I learned the values of hard work and resilience on the factory floor working alongside my mother, and by living those values, I became the first person in my family to graduate from college.
Easing the Tax Burden on Homeowners: I will fight to relieve the pressure of rising costs and burdensome taxes and lower property taxes so Ohio families can keep their hard-earned money.
