| Collapse all
- I am running to represent the families of House District 89 because government works best when it listens first, spends responsibly, and respects parents, taxpayers, and communities. Austin has grown disconnected from the people it serves. I will be a strong, independent voice who puts our neighborhoods ahead of special interests, protects parental rights, supports strong public schools, and demands accountability for every tax dollar. My commitment is simple: defend our freedoms, strengthen our schools, protect our communities, and ensure government serves the people, not the other way around.
- Texas families deserve representatives who answer to their constituents, not political insiders or special interests. Too often, decisions in Austin are made behind closed doors while parents are ignored, taxpayers are overburdened, and local voices are shut out. I will fight for transparency in government, responsible budgeting, and real accountability, especially when it comes to public education, infrastructure, and protecting community values. I believe elected officials should earn trust every day by showing up, listening, and delivering results. Public office is a public trust and I intend to honor it.
- Safe neighborhoods, quality schools, and a strong local economy don’t happen by accident, they happen when families, parents, educators, and local leaders are empowered instead of overridden by bureaucracy. I will stand up for parental rights, support law enforcement, protect local control, and promote policies that help small businesses and working families thrive. Decisions should be made as close to home as possible, by people who live with the results. When families are strong, communities are strong, and Texas stays strong.
Families are stretched thin. I am committed to responsible budgeting, opposing wasteful spending, and ensuring every tax dollar is spent transparently and effectively, especially when it comes to roads, schools, and local services.
Local Control & Government Transparency
Decisions should be made as close to the people as possible. I will fight back against top-down mandates, protect local voices, and ensure open, accountable government that listens to constituents.
Public Safety & Support for Law Enforcement
