I am a Coloradan by choice. I love the Ivywild area of Colorado Springs and I want to work to represent the area with all the passion that I can muster. I believe in a true representative government enabled by the Internet and Social Media.
  • I believe in transparency. Data and information is cheap and it should be in the hands of the voters, not the politician.
  • We are individuals first. We must come together to get things done, but we must remember when it is done, we are individuals.
  • I aim to become a representative, not a leader. Colorado House District 18 must be represented, not led from the State Capital.
I want to open all of government and the Republican party. I do not want anyone to guess about what I am thinking on a certain bill or topic. Colorado House District 18 must have a representative that understands that they are simply a representative and not a leader of the people in the district.
