Elections, ethics & government: “Election Integrity, Medical Freedom, Border Security, Agriculture Industry support, Water, Parental Authority via School Choice, and ensuring the protection of our God given Constitutional Rights are at the top of my list of current issues. We The People need to get the political establishment out of our everyday lives and increase OUR voices at the State and Federal levels of government! We need America First voices and fresh ideas in our Arizona State Senate and I am the Nurse for the job!”
(Campaign website (accessed Oct 23, 2026)) Elections, ethics & government: “Anything that makes the individual stronger relative to the government is something I'll be passionate about. Our founding values are under attack, the left now wears their Socialist labels publicly and proudly, and the powers that be are always trying to expand government's control over our personal lives. Stopping them and restoring our God-given rights is what I'm personally passionate about!”

Jobs, wages & cost of living: “Arizona is becoming increasingly unaffordable for families in LD29, as rising housing costs, stagnant wages, and limited access to quality education make life harder, while corruption and special interests shape policies that should serve the people. I’m running to put LD29 families first, fight for fair wages, strong schools, affordable housing, and a government that is truly accountable to everyone.”
(Campaign website (accessed Oct 23, 2026)) Campaign priorities: “Education: 92% of our children go to public schools and thanks to the over exploitation of key programs, our system is now Billions in debt, and our teachers and support staff barely make the money, nor have the support they need to stay in the field. Teachers are retiring en masse, kids reading comprehension is dropping, and teachers are being treated as babysitters and not as the highly qualified educators that they are. • Labor: Labor is the back bone of this country and I see that essential workers who help make the world go round are being underserved and under appreciated.”
(Ballotpedia Candidate Connection survey (2024)) Elections, ethics & government: “Expanding voting rights & Election Integrity In Arizona. The people of Arizona deserve useful and functional policies such as open primaries, RCV, and , automatic voter registration. It is already a challenge for many people to vote, including 34% of Arizonans who are registered independents in this state. We should have rules on the books today that make it easy and convenient for voters in this state to have a voice and make their choices.”
