Academically, I hold a Bachelor's degree in Sociology from Western Kentucky University and am currently a candidate for a Master of Public Administration at the University of Kentucky. This educational background underscores my dedication to public service and community development.
As a candidate for State Representative, I bring a blend of community values, financial expertise, and a passion for serving others. My focus is on advancing local interests, supporting businesses, and ensuring that the voices of our community are heard and amplified. With my candidacy, District 27 can expect an unwavering advocate for positive change and progress.- I grew up on a farm in Meade County and understand the value of a hard-earned dollar. I’ve seen firsthand how hard work can create happy lives for our families. We deserve an economy that benefits everyone, not just a select few. As your representative, I will fight for policies that keep more money in your pocket and will advocate for policies that support fair labor practices and reduce costs for working Kentucky families.
- Education transformed my life, opening doors I never thought possible. As your state representative, I will advocate for adequate funding for Kentucky’s public schools to ensure our kids have access to quality education. I am committed to keeping public dollars in public schools and will oppose any efforts to divert funds to unaccountable private schools.
- Personal freedom means having the right to make private decisions about our own lives. In the legislature, I will fight to preserve abortion rights and ensure that everyone has access to comprehensive healthcare, so that all individuals can make the choices that are best for them and their families.
As a farm-raised Meade County native, I support sustainable farming and market access. I advocate for equitable school funding and support for teachers. I aim to boost our local economy through job growth and business support. I also believe in protecting access to comprehensive reproductive healthcare and upholding individual autonomy. These areas are crucial for the well-being and progress of our community.
