Reason for Seeking Public Office:
At a time when many are disillusioned by politics and our elected officials, I feel it is important that every day, common-sense folks step up to lead our state. People like you and me. People with a new vision and new ideas who will listen, learn and act.
I will bring all of our visions together and work together to get things done. I will work to move the legislature in a fresh, new direction -- a direction that respects you, the taxpayer.
