Ballotpedia biographical submission form
The candidate completed Ballotpedia's biographical information submission form:
| “ | What is your political philosophy?
My political philosophy is to treat everyone with dignity and respect. I chose to run because our politicians do not represent the communities of legislative district 20 and do not reflect the values of Arizona. I hope to bring more diversity and inclusion to the Capitol and to all of Arizona. Is there anything you would like to add? I am an avid lasagna lover, anime enthusiast and dog dad.[2] |
