I am running for the North Carolina State House of Representatives because we need a trustworthy voice who can bridge the generational gap with the younger voters in our communities while standing firm on the Word of God and conservative values. I believe the hearts of the fathers must be turned to their children, and the hearts of the children to their fathers. Together, I believe we can make the crooked ways straight and fortify North Carolina in the conservative roots and biblical principles it was built upon.
  • I desire to see America turn back to God. I believe we don't just need another conservative politician in Raleigh. We need a Christian in our capital who can form policy from a Biblical worldview.
  • We must implement tax cuts, reduce regulation on business, and control government spending to bolster our economy. Along with that, we must partner with trade schools, community colleges, and apprenticeship programs to grow our workforce.
  • We must implement curriculum reform in our public education system and keep ideology out of the classroom. Along with that, I believe we must implement school choice programs to allow for the best possible education.
Economic Development.

Education.
Abortion.

Crime and Public Safety.
I look up to my father. He is one of the hardest working men I know, and despite many ups and downs in life He not only continued working tirelessly to provide for my family but he also never wavered in his trust and faith in God.
I am God-fearing. I am trustworthy. I do my work diligently, the right way, the first time.
I want people to say in the future, that I was a man who fought for Biblical values in the public square.
I began working my very first job at the age of 12 as a landscaper for my father.
I believe in some cases it can be. However, I believe to make progress we must have fresh ideas and a fresh vision for our state. It is very easy to fall back and be content with the status quo. I will fight to not remain at the status quo, but to increase the peace and prosperity for every North Carolinian.
Compromising is necessary and useful for policymaking on certain issues and topics. However, I believe there are issues where compromising is unacceptable. I will not compromise on any biblically related issue.
