Q&A
1) Define what “success” would look like if you are elected to serve your district.
It will be a success if I am seen by constituents as a caring and effective advocate able to work with both parties respectfully, decrease reliance on property taxes, and increase state funding for clean water initiatives.
2) Name one issue the Legislature handled last session. Explain why you agree or disagree with the final outcome.
We passed several bills addressing gun safety. I was supportive, as a lifelong gun owner and hunter, as I believe they were balanced and did not infringe on individual constitutional rights.
