I have dedicated myself to educating my own children and want to advocate for all children in Texas. I am a true Trump conservative.
I am a fierce defender of the right to quality education. Raising my seven children has taught me that the best candidate in this race will fight for parents and their duty to be in charge of their children's education, and in so doing I will be the best choice for our children's education.
I am a loyal, dedicated, hard working conservative Christian woman.
That I left this world with more love than before.

I have struggled with balancing family and work.
Yes, I believe parents need to be made aware of every curriculum change that is occurring.
The skills and expertise that I believe would be the most helpful for the holder of this office to have our integrity and honesty.
