My entire working career has been around service. From selling tacos and frying chicken at Taco Bell and KFC, to managing a receiving dock at a major retail store, to helping homeowners fight for basic respect and dignity from their home insurance companies, to my current career in affordable housing I have always had jobs intended to serve people most often overlooked or taken advantage of.
I decided to run for office because I became weary of waiting for someone to do something about all the things I see majorly impacting the lives of those I serve. I grew tired of constantly dealing with the fruit of a broken system and decided it’s time to cut the tree down instead of just dealing with the fruit. So I stepped up to run for office with the intention of taking an axe to the very system that created the despair and poverty so many Hoosiers have been subjected to.
I hope to bring common sense, everyday Hoosier values back to the state house so we can finally focus on things that truly matter to everyday Hoosiers.- Hoosiers deserve healthcare that doesn’t bankrupt them. That includes prescription costs that don’t make seniors ration food, ER bills that don’t punish families for an accident or emergency, and insurance premiums that don’t eat up enormous portions of our paychecks. This isn’t radical or extreme, this is common sense reform that is long overdue.
- Hoosiers deserve education that is free of private profiteering and is funded and focused on providing Hoosier children with world-class education. Education is the bedrock of success and our Hoosier children deserve the best.
That means educational curriculum laser focused on social studies, civic education, science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. This, of course, is not intended as an exhaustive list of curricula, but a starting point to begin the conversation in building a better education system.
We shouldn’t stop at just curriculum, though. To talk about education without talking about teacher pay would fail to miss the mark. I support increasing the minimum pay guarantee for teachers to $75,000 per year. - Jobs that take Hoosier tax breaks must hire from local Hoosiers. This seems incredibly common sense, but very often new jobs come into areas with tax break, incentives, and forgivable loans only to bring in out-of-town or out-of-county labor. Furthermore, many also partake in Anti-Union behavior. I fully support legislation that would require any development taking local tax breaks to hire from local labor first while respecting union efforts and maintaining neutrality.
