Expand all | Collapse all

I have always been passionate about education. I was raised by a single mother, grew up in poverty and had a dysfunctional home. I dropped out of school due to my living circumstances. I eventually went back to school and went on to graduate college. I understand hard work and what it means to achieve the American dream.

As someone who once identified with the democratic party, I quickly shifted my political ideology when I saw how welfare devastated black communities to include my own family. I believe that our constitution is the most important document in our nation second to the bible. I am a capitalist . I believe in strong borders, low taxes, limited government, medical freedom, educational freedom, election integrity, parental rights, and abhor communistic curriculum currently being taught in schools across America. I am vehemently against Critical race theory, critical theory, SEL, DEI and any curriculum that seeks to indoctrinate children and violate parental rights.

I have been a political activist and education advocate for over 10 years. I have experience in business, marketing, education, hospitality and youth ministry. I love working with children especially disadvantaged youth. I hold a degree in business and Marketing. I am a born again Christian who does not COMPROMISE! I believe in the bible in its entirety.

I currently live in Idaho with my spouse who is a veteran , our children and 2 dogs.
I am bold, honest, an excellent communicator and genuine listener. I care about the whole person and truly have a heart to serve.
I believe that elected official are responsible for listening to their constituents and taking action on their behalf.
I want my children to know that I fought for their freedom. I want my children to grow up in a free society that loves God and honors the constitution.
I started braiding hair at age 11 however, my first official job on paper was McDonalds.
Mans search for meaning because it humbles me and helps to ground me in my mission.
Challenging the narrative that are present with stereotypes about black people.
