Crime and public safety, tax cuts, education reform, school choice and regulatory reform. If we are going to preserve the rights of Missourians across our state, downsize government authority and prosper as a state, these areas must be prioritized by the Legislature in the 2027 session.
Tax reform, education choice and making Missouri safer. These areas have regularly been the top issues for voters in my district as well as across the state. It’s well past time that we find a path to getting rid of income tax and property tax, empower parents to make the best educational decisions for their kids and make Missouri safe again.

I have worked in healthcare for over 33 years and it is through my advocacy work here that I began to move into running for office.
Better access for all to healthcare. Rural hospitals need to be protected and there are only three counties in the state that have enough doctors. We need to examine what policies in Missouri government are driving family doctors and general surgeons away and address them in order to recruit more physicians.

No donations and no endorsements. My campaign is entirely self-funded and community-backed, free from special interest endorsements and donor influence. In the state Senate, my only priority will be delivering real results for District 2 families, independent of political pressure or backroom deals.
Positive politics. I believe politics should be about progress. My campaign is built on a foundation of positive politics. Focus on solving issues and don't waste time just criticizing your opponents. Practical solutions over attacks. Listening to our neighbors.
