I received my bachelors degree at Thomas Edison State University before beginning my masters study at Harvard University.
I am running for State Senate District one because Hoosiers deserve a State Senator that will take bold action now and fight for Hoosier families that deserve their piece of the American dream. They deserve a state Senator that has a track record of putting the people first instead of a track record of apathy and testing on laurels. This is a time for bold ideas and the willingness to serve the people.- I will fight for our teachers and create legislation to protect them from being dragged through the mud due to political trends and popular opinions.
- I will fight to bring back Collective Bargaining for our unions to finally have a seat back at the table!
- I will fight to ensure that our Hoosiers and veterans have access to legal marijuana so that the people have an alternative to addictive opiate medications and the state has access to new taxable revenue streams
2. Policy that protects our teachers and educational institutions from outside, unqualified influence.
3. Bringing back Collective Bargaining to boost union labor and economic equality.
4. Policy that creates jobs through clean energy production and sustainment.
