The Economy: We are all struggling right now, and I want to provide much needed relief for all of us. Tax reductions, smaller government, and less interference in your life. While we may not be able to change national policies, I can do everything in my power to properly manage state resources to lessen the load on each and every Hoosier.

Quality Careers (Jobs): We live in an amazing location that hasn't seen the economic development that it deserves. A port, multiple Interstate highways, and a National Lakeshore should equal the envy of the state. Instead, we see huge projects go to other areas again and again. Why? Because we don't have the right people fighting to bring those dollars here. I will fight to bring development and our tax dollars back home to District 9.

Accountability and Accessibility: I'm available and I talk directly to you, my constituents. I communicate via modern technology, having real time videos where I listen to the concerns that matter to YOU. With the incumbent, you get a form letter from an assistant (if you get anything at all), and with me you'll get to speak directly to whom you elected.
Criminal justice reform and the home health care/Medicaid Waiver Services.

As a former Correctional Officer and someone with experience in all areas of the criminal justice system, I see many areas that need improvement. Privatized prisons, revolving door pipelines, and a system that encourages recidivism are not only bad for our budget but they also do nothing to clean up our neighborhoods.

My wife is a Medicaid Waiver Case Manager that works with developmentally disabled children and their families. This gives me a wealth of knowledge in both this field, and the home health care industry. It also allows me to be an advocate for community resources such as Paladin and Opportunity Enterprises.
