I'm 27 Years old, a lifelong Rural Pennsylvanian. I'm a Firefighter and a Blue Collar worker.in a warehouse.

I'm a high school graduate and a graduate of the Criminal Justice program at SUN Area Technical Institute. i was born to a middle-class family with a deep commitment to community engagement...

  • I believe in reducing the tax burden and government spending, we need to be fiscally responsible
  • i believe in "Pennsylvania First" protecting Pennsylvania's economy, workers and citizens. raising the minimum wage, establishing Pennsylvania protectionist laws, fining any cooperation that outsources jobs from Pennsylvania to another country, expanding non-discrimination acts to Labor laws.
  • Seeking the Common Ground to lead Pennsylvania to a brighter future. as a former republican, turned democrat the only way to legislate is in a bipartisan manner and to reject the divisive partisan politics that has plagued us for so long
As a First Responder I vehemently support tax cuts and incentives to our public servants who defend our communities and to broaden mental health and cancer screening to them, being a Rural Pennsylvanian the Agricultual sector is paramount to our survival. to promote our broad agriculture sector expanding farmer's markets, prohibiting solar farm and other development on arable farmland is needed to preserve our farmland, coordinating with local grocery stores to get them to sell local products from farmers in their stores, further tax exemption for farmers.
Franklin Delano Roosevelt, he led us from a Great Depression to an Economic and Social Recovery through his projects, Bipartisan craftmanship and his way of communicating to the public about what was happening in relation to the Great Depression, projects and recovery.
Unapologetically Moderate by Bill King
Transparency, Ethics, communication and understanding..
Understanding, Bipartisan, Conflict Resolution, compassion, ethics, honest
To legislate in an open, compassionate manner and represent the best interests of the people of that district, the people deserve honest representation by someone who doesn't care about the salary.
Someone that breaks through the political divide and has worked with republicans and democrats alike to better Pennsylvania.
September 11th, 2001, i was 5-6 years old.
Mifflinburg Buggy Museum, Summer Youth Program from 2011 to 2013
As someone who loves history i have to say my favorite is " The Last Full Measure" by Jeff Shaara, it reads accounts and depictions of the Battle of Gettysburg, as the civil war was a detrimental and influential era of American history.
trying to do too much at once and not being able to delegate as well as dealing with ADD.
Civil and Cordial dialogue and discussion, a willingness to seek the Common Ground for the betterment of the people.
Battling Population decline, reinvigorating the economy and working to reduce government spending.
not necessarily, individuals who aren't career politicians lead for the people rather than just for a paycheck or 10 seconds on TV.
Absolutely! building a cross aisle and friendly network of professional relationships is key to ensuring cooperation and robust lawmaking.
State Representative Alec Ryncavage, State Senator Lynda Culver, State Representative Mark Rossi and Former State Representative John Showers
TBD, i personally believe in Term Limits and vow to serve 6-8 years before vacating the office in would be holding at that time.
That a Local Business I love shopping at won't know how long they can continue staying open if taxes on local, small businesses aren't reduced and the owner advised that they aren't the only small business feeling this effect.
It honestly depends on the circumstances relating to the use of emergency powers, but I do believe that a vote should be held if emergency powers would be needed for that situation by the legislative assembly..
Absolutely! Bipartisanship and Compromise solutions are core beliefs of mine to project Pennsylvania to a brighter future.
Placing Small Business in a separate tax bracket at 2% much lower than the flat cooperation tax at 8.99% in conjunction with a minimum wage increase to $10.00 per hour.
Agriculture Committee, Labor and Industry Committee
