The responsibility of a state rep is managing complex budgets, holding large institutions accountable, and delivering results exactly what I’ve done for 15+ years in healthcare IT and program management with the VA, DoD, and Blue Cross Blue Shield. I’ve led multimillion-dollar system implementations and navigated federal compliance requirements, the same skills a state rep needs. My MBA in Healthcare Management gives me direct expertise on healthcare policy. I also serve as a Court Appointed Special Advocate, working within legal systems for people who need a voice. I am a small business owner living one block from major developments planned for our community. I bring both the expertise and the lived stake in getting this right.

First, economic opportunity: Partnership with local government & the State to address property taxes across Wyco and ensuring major investments like the Mattel complex and the Chiefs stadium must benefit everyone in Wyandotte County, not just a few . I’ll push for real transparency and accountability & visibility on how public dollars are spent. Second, healthcare: no Kansan should have to choose between prescriptions and rent. I’ll fight for Medicaid expansion and against barriers like unregulated health-sharing ministries that can deny claims. Third, education: every child deserves a fully funded classroom. I’ll oppose diverting public dollars to private-school tax credits when our public schools, and our kids need it most.

Kansans deserve to see how a bill changes before it becomes law, not after, and my constituents deserve to hear from me REGULARLY. I’d push for a mandatory public notice and comment period any time a bill’s language is substantially replaced late in the process, and no more overnight rewrites with zero opportunity for testimony. I’d also support a simple, searchable public tracker so any constituent can follow a bill’s actual text changes in plain language, not just its number, from introduction to final vote. Government works better when people can watch it work. Advocacy, transparency, PROCESS and PUBLICATION, and COMMUNICATION.

Yes. Kansas should make it easier, not harder, to vote — that’s the core of civic opportunity: every vote counts, every voice is heard. I’d support expanding advance voting locations and hours, automatic voter registration when Kansans interact with the DMV, and protecting no-excuse advance ballot access for working families, seniors, and voters with disabilities. I’d oppose measures that add barriers without solving a documented problem. I’d also push to modernize how counties report results and communicate with voters, so trust in our elections comes from transparency, not restriction. Kansans shouldn’t have to choose between working their shift and casting their ballot.
