- Rural Agricultural Heritage:
Whether you chose rural life or it chose you, the people of western Colorado share a deep appreciation for our way of life. The open spaces, fresh air, and sounds of nature aren’t just scenic—they’re essential to who we are as a community. This lifestyle is not to be taken for granted.
We value and protect our land because we live on it, work it, and depend on it. As stewards of the land, we understand the importance of preserving both the environment and our agricultural heritage. That stewardship also includes a strong respect for private property rights, which must be protected from government overreach or infringement. - Enhancing Rural Infrastructure: Rural infrastructure doesn't just serve rural—it supports all Colorado. Anyone who’s been rerouted through Steamboat Springs during an I-70 closure knows this all too well. Roads, broadband, cellular service, and reliable power distribution in western Colorado are critical not only for our local communities but for the state’s economy as a whole. Strong infrastructure enables education, supports care for our veterans and seniors, and empowers the people who fuel key industries like agriculture, natural resource development, and tourism. But none of this is possible without sustained investment. We must enhance and expand our rural infrastructure to keep Colorado connected, productive, and thriving.
- Creating Opportunities for Families and Small Businesses: Small businesses are the backbone of rural Colorado, yet they face increasing burdens from regulations designed for urban economies. A one-size-fits-all approach doesn’t work for our communities. With most rural businesses having between two and eight employees, bureaucratic red tape and fines can be devastating. I want to help reduce unnecessary regulations and ensure businesses have access to resources like the Office of Economic Development and International Trade (OEDIT) and Small Business Development Centers (SBDCs) to foster growth and job creation. This mission includes an all of the above energy policy to support the coming age of increasing power demands.
But none of that would matter without one critical trait: the ability to listen.
My first job was sitting on an upside-down 5-gallon bucket, peeling raw potatoes and dropping them into another 5-gallon bucket for fresh-cut fries. It was at a small, locally owned fast food drive-up—not a modern drive-thru, but a true drive-up where a carhop would take your order at the window and return with a tray that hooked onto your car door.
The Blind Side tells the story of someone born into an incredibly difficult life, yet through resilience and the humility to accept help, overcomes obstacles that would break many. It’s a testament to the power of perseverance, the impact of compassion, and the idea that where you start does not determine where you finish.
Similarly, Liz Murray’s journey in Homeless to Harvard is incredibly inspiring. She inherited unimaginable challenges, yet through grit, determination, and a humble heart, she transformed her life. Liz Murray is one of my personal heroes, and I was honored to hear her speak in person at an Express Employment Leadership Conference. Her story is a powerful example of human empowerment and personal responsibility—qualities I believe are too often undervalued today.
