What makes you the best candidate for this position? What skills, expertise, or competencies qualify you?
I work with and care for people for a living and have experience in politics-like events from high school (Policy and Congressional Debates)
What are Kansas's three most important issues, and how do you intend to address them?
I define Kansans' top three issues as Housing, Healthcare, and Data Center Development.
I intend to help with housing by suggesting different property tax solutions and hope to offer assistance to first time buyers.
I want to make Healthcare more affordable, possibly expanding Medicaid/Medicare.
I am completely against data centers and their destruction of our environment and hope to find a solution that makes data centers research more environmentally friendly options before they even set foot in Kansas.
How would you make it easier for Kansas citizens to follow bills as they flow through the legislature? What, if any, changes would you propose in the “Gut and Go” process?
I would love to continuously update my fellow Kansans as the legislature goes on. We are all part of this democracy, I am not the only person involved here.
Would you support changes to Kansas election laws and voting systems? Why?
I would support changes to Kansas election/voting laws as long as it benefits democracy and gives the people more of a choice. Other than those reasons, I will fight for the rights Kansans already have in our election system.
