Expand all | Collapse all

I am a 22-year-old conservative from Port Washington, Wisconsin. I have 4 siblings, three brothers, and one sister. I have to occupations, I am a manager for my families bakery, and work at as a waiter for a Serbin restaurant. I have a passion to serve the great people of Wisconsin. I am currently attending the University of Wisconsin Milwaukee. And I am earning why major in political science, with an emphasis in constitutional law. I graduate from Cedarburg High School in 2018 and have lived in the 60th assembly district my entire life. I was a Boy scout from troop 836 in Cedarburg and earn the rank of eagle scout. I have participated in multiple community cleanup projects, construction projects, and food drives. On a personal level, I enjoy rock climbing, camping, and building 3D puzzles. I have the goal of bring civility back to our government, and to the people. We need to start remembering that the person who thinks differently to you, is a human being. I also despise career politician, who hog a seat/office. I am determined to add term limits to the state’s constitution.
  • I would like to reduce the level of crime in southeastern Wisconsin, and more specifically Milwaukee. Crime is not limited to just Milwaukee, but it is a problem that the city cannot solve by itself. As a state leader I would ask the Milwaukee DA’s office to take a hard look at his current catch and release policies of low bail & minimum sentencing that are plaguing the city. If he is unable to make meaningful and impactful progress, then I would seek avenues for his removal.
  • Our democracy cannot support career politicians anymore. I don’t not care how much a politician is liked, spending 20+ years in one office/seat, is not democracy. To many people are getting rich off the backs of the people.
  • I will have the backs of small businesses. Small Business are the jewels of out communities. They are small ma and pa stores, that give our community so much character. Inflation is huge barrier to their continue growth and success.
We need policies that help Wisconsinites grow and thrive. Controlling inflation, removing barriers to the supply chain, supporting small businesses, supporting educators, addressing health and human services, investing in our youth, and protecting our citizens are just a few of the priorities.
I look up to people like Joe Manchin of West Virginia, William H. Rehnquistt, Sandra Day O'connor. Are just some people I look up to. They are master in there fields and truly cared about there work. Also my parents!
I'm not sure if I could point to something and say this is my political philosophy in a nutshell if you want to understand it.
I believe honesty, humility, and accountability are most important principles for an elected official.
I am the best person to elect because I am NOT a career politician. I believe in term limits and taking immediate action to address real problems impacting people and families. I have fresh legs to step up and carry forth the problems of our district with a cooperative spirit and new perspective. With a passion for REALLY hearing what my neighbors have to say, I have spent years studying the social, economic, and political issues facing our communities. I am 22-years old, an Eagle Scout, attending UWM fulltime, working two jobs, motivated, hardworking, dedicated and giving it my all every single day. I see the world from a different angle and will fight EVERY DAY for the people of my district.
The core responsibilities for someone elected to this office is to keep the people safe, and not to violate there rights guaranteed by the Wisconsin constitution, or the U.S. Constitution.
I would like people to remember, that I tried my hardest to serve the people and the community I love.
I worked at McDonalds for about three years when I was in high school.
The Harry Potter series. I love magic and the fun that comes with the wizarding world.
Evermore, Form Beauty and the Beast
I have struggle in school, with topics that don't grab my attention. I have always need to do something, I can't sit still for too long.
The ideal relationship between the governor and the legislature is a relationship of give and take. No one branch should strong arm the other. Should always create and open channel of good communication. Especially if the two branches are controlled by different parties.
Crime in our major cities. Wisconsin is already such a wonderful place to live. And if we could get our crime under control, Wisconsin will be that much better of a place to rise a family.
I like Wisconsin two chamber system, I have no opinion of the positive/negative effects of a states unicameral system.
Beneficial yes, necessary no. I believe this mentality is worsening our career politician problem.
Absolutely I believe that it is beneficial to build relationships with other legislators. You need people to like you and know who you are, in order to get things done. Other wise you can't achieve anything.
I favor that our elected representative should handle the redistricting process. However we need to add rules to the process. I propose that we should attempt to look at historical boundaries of a district. I also support that you may not split up municipality/cities or counties, unless it is absolutely necessary.
Committee on Colleges and Universities, Committee on Education, Committee on Small Business Development, just to name a few.
Joe Manchin of West Virginia. He is leader in standing up for his people of West Virginia. He doesn't let his party push him around. And he cares about his relationship with the other side.
I have heard many stories on relationships falling apart, due to politics. They have asked me to try and turn down the mean and heated rhetoric. They want people to treat others like humans.
When is a door, not a door? When its a jar. Ha Ha Ha. Lol
Legislature should be apart of the use of emergency powers. We don't live in a world were one person can unilaterally do something.
If the voter ask for compromise on an issue, then yes I believe that it is necessary. Must people are to the center on most issues. They do not wish for political fighting all the time.
