Service has never been something I do — it's who I am.

Like many families in District 28, I've experienced life's challenges firsthand. I know what it feels like to depend on school sack lunches, to couch surf when there wasn't a place to call home, to struggle under the weight of debt, and to watch addiction affect the people I love.

Those experiences didn't define me. They strengthened my faith, deepened my compassion, and shaped my commitment to serving others.

I'm running as an Independent because I believe people should always come before politics. My loyalty isn't to a political party. It's to the families, seniors, young people, workers, and small businesses that make District 28 home.

I believe every person deserves a better quality of life, peace of mind, healthy families, and readiness.

I'm running because I never forgot what it feels like to need somebody.

People First.

Because together, we can do better.
