People are stretched too thin right now, whether it's paying for health care, buying groceries, affording rent or a mortgage, filling up the gas tank, or simply trying to get ahead. I want to focus on solving real problems instead of made up culture wars that distract us.

I'm focused on building affordable housing, making Missouri a place where everyone is welcome and included, and making it easier for people to start and grow a small business. I believe our schools and communities should be safe, with policies that put kids and families ahead of the gun lobby. I believe health care is a right, our tax system should ask the wealthiest to pay their fair share, and our state budget should invest in everyday Missourians not the priorities of well-funded special interests.

I want Missouri to be a place where people have the opportunity not just to get by, but to build a good life.
Meaningful change doesn't happen because of one legislator or one bill, especially in a first term. It happens by building relationships, earning trust, and bringing people together around real solutions. My priority in 2027 will be doing exactly that while effectively representing House District 24.

I'll introduce legislation that helps lower costs for working families, improves public safety through responsible gun reform, makes voter registration more accessible for renters, and strengthens support for Missourians who are unemployed and looking for work. I'll also work with colleagues to find common ground on issues like the rising costs of housing, health care, and child care. That's how good ideas become law, and it's how I'll work to deliver real results for the people I serve.
