Education has been one of my top priorities. As a chemistry and physics teacher for 30+ years I believe in public education and its ability to change a person's life. I also have worked to protect women and children by working to pass anti-sex trafficking legislation. I was the chair of the Statewide Council Against Minor Sex Trafficking 2022-2023,
We must protect rural farmland from encroachment by power companies and LLC's looking to exploit our open and relatively inexpensive land and lax regulations.

Occupation Farming
As a fifth-generation farmer, I will fight hardest for our rural way of life: protecting family farmland from eminent domain abuse, funding rural schools, defending conservative values, and standing up to the establishment and special interests in Jefferson City. Our land, our kids and our conservative values are worth fighting for, regardless of who's pushing back.
Protecting private property rights and ending the abuse of eminent domain by out-of-state, for-profit corporations seizing Missouri farmland. No family should lose their land to a corporate land grab. I'll lead a constitutional amendment through the Senate, building a rural coalition and putting the final say in the hands of Missouri voters, where it belongs.
