Occupation
RETIRED IT
As a U.S. Navy veteran (1986–1990), I learned discipline, leadership, and a commitment to service. My career as a systems engineer, IT manager, cybersecurity specialist, and small business owner has sharpened my skills in solving complex problems and delivering results under pressure—skills Texas needs in Austin. I attended Eldorado High School and earned my GED before completing an associate degree from Central New Mexico Community College, a bachelor’s in IT from the University of Phoenix, and postgraduate coursework at Caltech. Living in North Texas, I’ve seen the effects of rapid growth: rising property taxes, strained infrastructure, and energy instability. What qualifies me most is my commitment to results over rhetoric, fiscal restraint, and transparent governance. I listen to constituents, reject insider deals, and focus on practical solutions that protect liberties, strengthen communities, and ensure accountability.
Texas elections must be secure, transparent, and trusted. I support common-sense reforms that protect lawful voters and ensure equal enforcement statewide. Priorities include stronger voter ID verification, uniform mail-in voting standards, regular independent audits, secure voting technology, and strict penalties for tampering or interference. I also support expanding secure early voting access for military members, seniors, and rural communities while preventing fraud and abuse. These measures protect the rights of eligible Texans and preserve the integrity of our elections. Every citizen—regardless of party—deserves to trust that their vote was counted and the outcome was fair. Free and fair elections are the foundation of self-government, and restoring voter confidence is essential to maintaining that foundation.
Texas must reduce healthcare costs and expand access—without sacrificing quality or burdening taxpayers. I support market-based reforms: increase competition among insurers and providers, expand telehealth services, invest in rural healthcare access through targeted incentives, and promote transparency in drug pricing. We should protect programs like CHIP while exploring affordable coverage options for working families—without mandates that raise costs or limit choice. Mental health needs dedicated funding for crisis response and early intervention. Texans deserve a system that puts patients and families first. My focus is on lowering costs through innovation and competition so every Texan can access affordable, quality care—without government overreach or one-size-fits-all mandates.
I support economic policies that reward work, reduce the tax burden, and make it easier for businesses to grow in Texas. That includes: (1) meaningful property tax relief—caps on appraisal increases, stronger homestead protections, and requiring voter approval for major hikes; (2) expanding skilled trades and technical training through local partnerships and apprenticeships; (3) cutting unnecessary regulations that hinder small businesses and job creators; and (4) targeted infrastructure improvements in roads, water, and broadband to keep up with growth. Texas thrives when government gets out of the way and lets free enterprise lead. My approach prioritizes private-sector growth, local control, and a level playing field for job creation across industries—especially in our fast-growing communities. We need fewer mandates from Austin and more freedom for Texans to work, hire, and build their futures.
Texas must lead in energy independence, reliability, and innovation. I support an all-of-the-above strategy that prioritizes oil and gas as the backbone of our economy—alongside nuclear, renewables, and battery storage. Fossil fuels built Texas and still power our homes, businesses, and industries. After Winter Storm Uri, we must prioritize grid reliability, power plant winterization, and diversified generation—without relying on federal mandates or market distortions. I support upgrading infrastructure, defending landowner rights, and encouraging investment in energy technologies through free-market incentives. We can protect the environment through conservation and innovation—not burdensome regulations. A stable, affordable energy grid protects families, fuels job growth, and ensures Texas remains energy dominant. I’ll fight to keep our grid independent and make Texas the nation’s leader in responsible, pro-growth energy policy.
Texas faces growing water challenges from drought and rapid development. I support: (1) conservation and efficiency upgrades for cities, farms, and industry; (2) new supply sources like desalination, aquifer recharge, and regional partnerships; (3) strong protections for groundwater rights, especially for farmers, ranchers, and rural communities; and (4) targeted infrastructure funding with clear oversight. We must plan ahead to ensure Texas agriculture and water-based industries remain strong while balancing growth from new residents and employers. I support working with expanding sectors—like technology and advanced manufacturing—to ensure local water capacity isn’t strained and that communities remain self-sufficient. These steps will help protect long-term water access without one-size-fits-all mandates. Water security must remain a Texas-driven priority, not a federally imposed burden.
Every child deserves access to a quality education focused on academics—not activism or social agendas. I support: (1) full curriculum transparency so parents know what’s being taught; (2) universal school choice, including public, charter, private, and homeschool options, so families stay in control; (3) higher teacher pay tied to classroom results and reduced bureaucracy; (4) a return to core instruction—reading, math, science, trades, and workforce prep; and (5) safe schools with mental health resources that don’t compromise discipline. Empowering parents does not mean opening the door to politicized mandates or ideological trends—there is no place for that in the classroom. Teachers deserve the freedom to teach without state-driven agendas. I’ll fight for local control, academic excellence, and real-world readiness—so Texas students graduate with the values and skills they need to succeed.
