- Bring affordable housing solutions to the people of Washington state by reducing administrative burden on the building industry and streamlining permitting and regulatory requirements for new construction projects.
- Create safer communities by ensuring our law enforcement officers are supported and resourced with appropriate legislation when necessary and ensuring they retain the ability to enforce the laws of the state of Washington.
- Continue to support the primary driving force of our economy: small businesses and the individuals and families who operate them. Our policy and legislation should promote small business growth while also continuing to innovate in the areas of workplace safety and personnel management without making it too difficult for those owners to operate in the state of Washington.
- Advocating for and supporting small business enterprises
The political world is a fickle beast and a worthwhile and necessary machine at the same time. I have spent my adult life in service to others and I have no intention to stop. I am extremely humbled by the opportunity to serve as a representative of the people to the House of Representatives of the State of Washington.
