Please list below 3 key messages of your campaign. What are the main points you want voters to remember about your goals for your time in office?

• Advocacy Our schools deserve a strong voice fighting for them both here in Kent and in Columbus. In the last state budget, politicians cut 400 million dollars from public education while giving a 600 million dollar handout to a billionaire for a stadium. That is unacceptable. I will advocate for Kent’s students, teachers, and families and demand fair funding so local taxpayers are not forced to make up the difference for the state’s neglect of public education.
• Safety Every student deserves a safe and supportive environment to learn and grow. Safety is more than locked doors; it is about protecting the physical, emotional, and mental well-being of every student and staff member. From ensuring classrooms are secure to improving school lunches, I will work to create schools where students, teachers, and staff can focus on learning in an environment that helps them thrive.
• Transparency Kent Schools belong to the community, and the community deserves to be informed and involved. I will work to ensure the board engages in open and honest discussions and makes information accessible to families. Transparency means being visible, accountable, and active within our schools and neighborhoods, not only during meetings but in every part of our community life.

What areas of public policy are you personally passionate about?

I am passionate about public education because it is the foundation of every community, from small rural towns to growing cities. Every student deserves access to safe schools, strong mental health supports, and the technology and resources needed to succeed. My background in rural policy has shown me how uneven funding and limited broadband access hold students and communities back. Expanding broadband connects students to opportunity, improves education, and drives economic development in underserved areas. Policies like these strengthen communities and boost economic growth across the board. I am committed to fighting for fair funding, equitable access, and policies that prepare every child to thrive in the modern world.

What organizations or individuals have endorsed your campaign?

My campaign is proud to be endorsed by Run for Something, the Ohio Young Democrats, and the Jane Fonda Climate PAC. Each of these organizations supports candidates who are committed to building stronger, more equitable communities. Their support reflects my dedication to advocating for public education, environmental responsibility, and transparent, community-centered leadership.
