| Collapse all
After moving to Kansas to be closer to family, I fell in love with this community. I’ve seen firsthand the incredible resilience, hard work, and neighborly spirit that define the people here. As a 4-H leader in the dog project, I’ve stayed involved with our youth and continue to be passionate about building stronger communities.
Running for office is a natural extension of my commitment to helping others. I care deeply about ensuring that everyone in our district, from farmers and small business owners to families and seniors, has a voice in Topeka. I’m not a career politician—I’m someone who believes in listening, rolling up my sleeves, and working hard to get things done for the people I care about.
Outside of politics, I love spending time outdoors hiking with my dog and enjoying the beauty of Kansas. I believe in putting the community first and I’m ready to work tirelessly to ensure District 79 thrives.- Community First: I am deeply committed to strengthening our local communities by listening to your concerns, supporting local businesses, and improving public services. I believe in putting people over politics to build a stronger, more connected District 79.
- Advocate for Rural Kansas: I am committed to addressing the unique challenges rural communities face, from access to healthcare to education and infrastructure. I will be a tireless advocate for the needs of our district and ensure that rural Kansas is heard at the state level.
- Common-Sense Solutions: I will work on practical, bipartisan solutions that make a real difference in our daily lives—whether it's lowering property taxes, improving access to affordable healthcare, or investing in our schools. My focus is on results, not political games.
Education and Youth Development: As a 4-H leader and someone who deeply values education, I am passionate about ensuring our schools are well-funded and that our teachers are supported. Every child in Kansas deserves a great education, regardless of where they live, and I want to ensure that our youth have opportunities for growth both inside and outside the classroom.
In the aftermath, my college quickly mobilized to help. We came together to bring essentials to citizens and first responders in the city. It was a powerful moment of solidarity, and it left a lasting impression on me about the importance of community in times of crisis.
A ballot initiative process would make our democracy more responsive and inclusive, as it puts more decision-making power in the hands of the people. While it’s important to ensure that initiatives are clear, fair, and well-vetted, this process provides an additional tool for Kansans to shape their future and hold elected officials accountable.
