Personal Pronouns He/Him
My priorities for my term are to ease the affordability crisis Wisconsin residents are feeling right now and bring more resources back from Madison to the district I serve. That means supporting policies that lower everyday costs, strengthen public schools, help address school budget shortfalls, and reduce pressure on local property taxpayers.

When more money stays in the pockets of families, and when schools and communities receive the resources they are owed—like Medicaid reimbursements—we build a stronger, more prosperous Wisconsin.
I would support or author legislation that increases funding and incentives for workforce housing, with strong guardrails to keep homes affordable and out of the hands of private equity ownership.

Housing affordability is one of Wisconsin’s most pressing challenges. When working families cannot afford to live in the communities where they work, it hurts families, increases pressure on property taxpayers, and limits economic growth. Wisconsin should nurture workforce housing, but guide it carefully so the maximum benefit goes to local residents, local workers, and the broader community.
I support independent citizen commissions—not legislators—drawing legislative districts. Voters should choose their representatives, not the other way around.

It is important to me that districts are not drawn simply to protect incumbents or maximize partisan advantage. Fair maps should keep communities together where possible, reflect the people and neighborhoods they serve, and recognize the shared interests of the broader metropolitan region. A fair redistricting process should be transparent, nonpartisan, and centered on fair representation for voters.
Wisconsin must do more to ensure every student has the resources they need to succeed, including students with disabilities. That starts with increasing state support for public education and special education so local districts are not forced to rely so heavily on property taxpayers to meet basic needs. I also support returning 100% of school-generated Medicaid reimbursements back to local districts. If schools provide the services, meet the requirements, and generate the reimbursement, those dollars should support students—not be held back in Madison. Strong schools build strong communities, and investing in teachers, support staff, mental health services, and special education improves outcomes for everyone.
I support responsible economic development, but not large projects without strong guardrails. Wisconsin residents, our environment, property values, and natural resources must be protected first. For CAFOs, that means strong water-quality protections, runoff management, testing, and real enforcement when operations put nearby families, farms, or drinking water at risk. Agriculture is essential to Wisconsin, but large-scale operations should not shift environmental or health costs onto surrounding communities. The same principle applies to data centers: they must be transparent, accountable, and required to pay their fair share so they do not drain water and energy, raise utility costs, or leave residents holding the bill.
