Who are you? Tell us about yourself.

I am a conservative Christian, husband, and father of 3 homeschooled boys. I have worked as a public servant for 15 years. I love working our family’s mining claim in Northeast Idaho, shooting, and spending as much time as possible in the beautiful Idaho wilderness. I want to preserve the conservative nature of Idaho for my sons and future generations.

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?

• I believe in medical freedom. The government should not be able to force you or your family to inject or ingest anything into your body.
• I support small business. No business should be told by the government that they are not essential.
• We must promote conservative principles. (Stop government overreach, defend our 2A rights, promote educational freedom, and remove oppressive government regulations.

What areas of public policy are you personally passionate about?

The areas within public policy that concern me the most deal primarily with freedom. Freedom from mandates, freedom from oppressive government regulations, freedom to fully exercise the Bill of Rights.
I am also very passionate about responsible growth. In the area, I live we are seeing a huge amount of growth. I believe that growth should be paying its own way. It should not be forced upon the existing residents.

What legacy would you like to leave?

The legacy that I wish to leave is with my 3 sons. It is my desire to raise righteous men that will become men of God.

What is the first historical event that happened in your lifetime that you remember? How old were you at the time?

The first historical event that comes to mind that I can remember was when I excepted Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior. I was around 11 years old when this happened.

What do you perceive to be your state's greatest challenges over the next decade?

The greatest challenges that I believe Idaho will be facing over the next decade are freedom and growth.

Do you believe it’s beneficial to build relationships with other legislators? Please explain your answer.

Yes, I do believe that it is beneficial and needed to build working relationships with other legislators. If you put yourself on an island all by yourself how can you expect to get things done? We must work together with other legislators to do the will of the people.

Should the legislature oversee or grant the use of emergency powers?

Yes, the legislature should oversee the use of emergency powers. This is the best way for the public to have a direct influence on what is happening.
