My plan was never politics, but I could no longer sit idly by and let our current elected officials ignore the needs of ALL the great people in this District. Government should be for, and benefit, everyone. Not just a select few. I know that to make a difference in your community, you have to know when to stand strong for what you believe and when you must put aside your differences to work together. I decided to run for office because I knew it was time for the Ohio Statehouse to once again reflect the values of our district. As your State Representative, I am bringing my expertise and fresh perspective to fight for the future of families like yours and mine.
My ability to work with diverse groups of people has allowed me to accomplish real change. Change that benefits everyone.
- Every Person. Every Voice. Government should work for, and represent, ALL its constituents. Not a select few.
- Healthcare is a right. Not a privilage. No one should be denied healthcare because of their inability to pay.
- Gun Safety laws are a must. Sensible Gun Legislation is needed to save lives.
Gun Safety, Healthcare, and Education.
I look up to my grand parents. Both were born with very little and worked very hard to provide for their family.
The biggest responsibility in this role is to represent the interests of the people, and not special interest groups, or the Party.
I would like my legacy to be that I helped people. That I cared enough to take a stand when it mattered most.
Janis Joplin - Piece of my Heart
Healthcare. Healthcare, and its rising costs, are costing people their lives. This can't continue.
The ability to partner with anybody is crucial in life, and the legislature. Differing opinions are important. The ability to listen without judgement is so important.
