I am an American, blessed by God to be born in these United States. I represent real people, and I am a real person with a real vision for our shared future.
Improving the quality of life for all our citizens, while protecting our liberty and preserving our American heritage for future generations.
Integrity, responsibility, and accountability along with a dedication to service to the people are the key principles an elected official should possess at a minimum.
Cooperation and communication are integral to being able to accomplish the goals of both the Executive and the Legislature on behalf of the citizens.
Preservation of our historic lands and values while improving infrastructure and building roads of opportunity for our citizens and businesses.
Yes and no. I believe it's beneficial to have developed relationships through experience in government or politics, but can also be detrimental for the citizens without the challenges of new perspectives and experiences to keep our country strong.
It's important to develop relationships with other legislators to accomplish the business of the people while maintaining focus on the priorities of the citizens who one represents.
I am humbled to answer the call to service in any capacity, I trust in God to protect me and guide me through life.
Should the need arise for emergency powers to be granted, it should be overseen by the legislature on behalf of the citizens to prevent abuse and hold accountable parties responsible.
Paper Ballot Option Provision: Guarantees a provisional paper ballot for any registered voter on election day to cast their votes without utilizing electronic voting machines, upon request.

I believe it is the responsibility of all those that serve the people in government to be transparent, responsible, and accountable for all spending of the taxpayers money.
