I was born in Staunton, VA to a single mother and grew up right here in Chesterfield. At the early age of 13, my mother and stepfather instilled me with a strong work ethic that is embodied in how I live my life everyday. I learned from an early age the value of working with my hands and have become skilled in various trades allowing me to launch multiple businesses here in Virginia. I currently own a security company and continue to work as an entrepreneur by investing in many small Virginia businesses. I am fortunate to have a beautiful daughter attending her last year at James Madison University. As a resident of the 70th district for over 30 years, I have a strong desire to ensure that not only she but all have a safe and prosperous place to live, work, and raise a family.
  • Quality of life
  • Promoting free choice of education
  • Supporting veterans, public servants, and safe communities in Virginia
I am personally passionate about the access of all communities to readily available cellular service and WIFI. I also care deeply about our public defenders and veterans, making sure they and their families get the care and support they need. I want to improve the standard of life of my local communities making sure that it is constantly improving, one such way is in the care of our children and the education system they enter into.
