Teacher/substitute teacher
I aim to safeguard our seniors by opposing Amendment 5, which would allow replacing the state income tax with substantially increased sales and services taxes. I aim to keep electricity rates stable by repealing a law which allows energy companies to charge consumers for incomplete power plants. I aim to stop the state’s slide into bankruptcy by balancing our budget.
Stopping overdevelopment will be priority #1. Traffic has become a worsening headache in our district. I will propose legislation to enshrine the ability of municipalities to reject urbanization. Our towns currently have no legal protection against lawsuits for refusing overdevelopment; granting them legal immunity in this regard is required to preserve suburban living.

I am passionate about making Missouri the best state in the nation to raise a family. That represents the convergence of multiple areas of policy: education that focuses on children, not institutions; power security and ensuring our grid is cheap and reliable; bringing high-paying manufacturing and industrial jobs to Missouri; and keeping our communities safe.
My top priority for 2027 is to grow our economy through expansion of manufacturing and industry while implementing effective safeguards to protect our communities from the growing demands on our natural resources and utilities. Locally I am focused on supporting our champions in the Peruque Creek Watershed Alliance to protect Lake Saint Louis.

I am most passionate about access to healthcare, public services and public education because they directly affect the strength of our community. Through my leadership in healthcare and my service as a firefighter, EMT, K-9 handler and search-and-rescue drone pilot, I have seen firsthand how much our communities depend on public services. These services need our support.
My top priority is responsible reform that protects essential services. I will oppose tax changes without a clear plan to fund schools, fire, EMS and infrastructure, while advancing practical healthcare reform and keeping partisan politics out of public education.
