As a dedicated citizen committed to bettering the lives of all Nevadans, I stand against the pervasive culture of corruption in our state government. It's time for change. Government should serve the people, not the other way around. I pledge not to raise taxes, but rather seek avenues to reduce them. I firmly believe in fostering private sector job creation within a responsible regulatory framework to promote prosperity. My core values include limited government, free markets and personal liberties. With three decades of firsthand experience in Nevada, progressing from a successful business owner to a seasoned financial services agency vice president overseeing operations across multiple states, I possess the expertise to navigate, and effect change while fostering constructive relationships. My life is centered on service before self, love for God and love for others. As the daughter and wife of military veterans and granddaughter of a chief of police, I understand the importance of supporting seniors, veterans, law enforcement, and business owners. Education, soft on crime policies and the economy are paramount concerns. Together, we can forge a brighter future focused on the people, not special interest.



Working together we can build brighter futures for all. People not special interests.
  • It's time we restore the voice and values of Nevadans to state government. Too many of our representatives are bought out by special interest and/or have conflicts of interests. We need legislators who will be courageous and stand up for the people.
  • We must work together to improve the lives of all Nevadans with common sense solutions. Active involvement during the legislative session opened my eyes to a culture of corruption. Many or our representatives showed arrogance and blatant disregard for the welfare of Nevadans.
  • Strong communities must be safe and must provide children with a good education equipping them to contribute to society. We must lock up criminals and reverse soft on crime policies and offer universal school choice to provide children the best education possible based on their learning needs. Children are the future.
Safety, education, effective delivery of state services, and reduced taxation.
Ronald Reagan's Speaking my Mind.
His speeches reflected optimism, resolve and commitment to freedom and democracy.
Integrity, work ethic, values, attitude, people orientation, and leadership.
I'm a people person: Relatable, honest, ethical, principled in my actions and decisions.

I'm a leader: Inspiring and motivating others with decision making and guiding organizations and people toward common goals.
I have communication skills: Articulating ideas, clearly listening and effectively conveying information. I
I'm collaborative. Working well with others to build coalitions and foster teamwork.
I'm adaptable: Flexible and able to respond to changing circumstances, new information and unexpected challenges.
I'm a problem solver: Identifying issues, analyzing data, and developing common sense solutions
I'm resilience: Remain composed and preservers in the face of adversity, or setbacks.
I have vision: Set a clear view of what the future can and should look like and can inspire others to work towards that vision.

These qualities make me successful during my career and will enable me to serve, lead and make a positive impact on our community.
Elected representatives should listen to voters, represent the interests and concerns of the public, make and influence decisions on policies and laws, be accessible, serve the community and improve the quality of life for everyone.
I want to be known as the "people's choice" for most effective state legislator. Someone who make a lasting impact for good.
Watching Neil Armstrong as he walked on the moon was exciting as a young child. This reinforced a believe and achieve mindset.
The most impactful as a participant was watching as the Vietman war as it ended. lived outside of Eglin AFB, in the FL panhandle. When the war ended a tent camp was established on the Eglin range for the refugees. Students could go meet and mingle with the Vietnamese students. In fact, we could check them out and take them to our homes. It was horrific to hear them share about life in a war zone, never having a good night's sleep, without hearing bombs. These students were so appreciative of the support of America, desired to assimilate and they became top academic students.
The relationship should be one of cooperation, collaboration, communication, and respect. Both branches have distinct roles and responsibilities, and they should work together to effectively govern the state and address the needs of the people.
Improved education, public safety, business diversification, affordable housing, the growing needs of seniors and veterans.
No, Government needs people with varied experiences which will represent the values and voices of the people.
Yes. Legislators can learn from each other experiences and best practices. Sharing and addressing strategies for common challenges can help improve governance. Building relationship with others can foster cultural benefit when exchange and diplomacy. Overall, the citizens benefit.
Dr. Robin Titus. She has a strong for Nevadans voting record.
Voters are wanting change. They are reporting that they have never heard from their representative - no contact- no newsletter- no outreach- no townhalls. Additionally, they are scared of the crime in the neighbor. A mother cried reliving the story of her child dying from a fentanyl overdose.
I would support education achievement and opportunity by funding universal school choice. I would also have to lower the felony theft threshold back to $250 to lower crime which has increased 15% for property crimes and 39% for drug store crimes.
Lt Gov Stavros Anthony, State Controller Andy Matthews, Keyston Corporation, Nevada State Republican Senate Caucus, Senator Dr. Robin Titus, Senator Jeff Stone, Assemblywoman Danielle Gallant, Senator Carrie Buck,
There should be 100% transparency and accountability.
Government is responsible to the people.
