| Collapse all
I have served as an alderman and board president in the city of Crestwood, where I saved taxpayers millions of dollars and stood up for transparency and ethics in government. Most recently, I served as a director and treasurer of the Lindbergh School board during these troubling times for K-12 education. As a local official, I've taken tough stands supporting conservative values. I've stood against tax increases, supported our first responders, and advocated for parents' rights in their children's education. I look forward to bringing my skills, strong work ethic, and experience and on the issues to the Missouri House of Representatives to serve my constituents and to promote policies that benefit them.
- Experience - I am the most experienced candidate in this race, with nearly a decade of public service in local offices where I was called upon to make important decisions affecting my community.
- Public safety - As a school board director and board treasurer, I supported the rebuilding and retrofitting of all district school buildings to greatly enhance the safety of students from violent intruders.to supporting the needs of police, firefighters who help keep us safe.
- Stimulating the economy - I have fought to keep government accountable and responsive to constituents. From pushing for fiscal efficiency and fighting against tax increases, as a municipal alderman and board president, I successfully fought to save taxpayers 32 million in tax giveaways to a financially troubled developer. I further fought against the intrusion of divisive learning in our schools as well as well as extreme content in our school libraries. I worked with local parents to make sure their voices were heard.
