My first and foremost goal if elected would be to uphold, preserve, and reclaim our liberties. For far too long we have willingly ceded our rights on false pretenses, or had them stripped out right without our consent. Additionally I believe firmly in criminal justice reform measures that will not only assist in reintegrating former inmates back into the public, but will lower the long term expense on corrections through reducing recidivism. Above all else though, I would do what's in the job title and represent my fellow citizens and their concerns. Every gripe, complaint, or concern that they have for our state will become mine, and though we may disagree on how to solve the issue, I will strive to make sure one is achieved.
I am a full time student at Boise State University, and am presently pursuing a bachelors degree in criminal justice. In my studies and extracurricular activities I have had the opportunity to get a direct look into how our correctional system runs, and the unfortunate instances of where it falls short. I have also had the honor of serving in our state's Army National Guard for the past three years, and that passion of selfless service is something I will carry into office if elected.
The drastic and sudden rise of artificial intelligence [AI] has seen many sectors of our lives change, some for better, others worse. One horrid use of it however has been the role it plays in mass surveillance and storing information in data bases. I would advocate strongly to ensure this can not be allowed in our state, and cement that our right to privacy is as fundamental as those listed in our constitution.
I am here for you, I am working to be elected so I can represent you. If you have any concerns you want addressed for our state, please do reach out to me and lets have a conversation. Even if I don't have an answer right then and there, I will find one.
