Florida State Senate District 8

“Action not Rhetoric: I believe government should protect our freedoms, keep our communities safe, spend responsibly, provide essential infrastructure and then get out of the way so families and businesses can succeed. I have built my public service record around solving problems, not just talking about them and playing the victim.” (Ballotpedia Candidate Connection (2026))

“Protect Florida's Quality of Life and Expand Opportunity: Florida's success should mean our children and grandchildren can afford to live here, find good careers and raise their families here.” (Ballotpedia Candidate Connection (2026))

“I am passionate about policies that create safe, prosperous and resilient communities while protecting our freedom. Public safety is government's first responsibility.” (Ballotpedia Candidate Connection (2026))

“Affordability: The state cannot change gas or grocery prices, but we can fix property and auto insurance. The corporations have been protected by the state, and allowed to cheat the tax payers.” (Ballotpedia Candidate Connection (2026))

“If we continue to send the same people to Tallahassee we will continue getting the same results: working families and retirees struggling to pay their mortgage, rent, property insurance, health insurance and auto insurance among all the other expenses we have.” (Ballotpedia Candidate Connection (2026))

“I am personally passionate about public education, economic justice, and protecting the rights of every individual. As a 28-year educator and labor leader, I have fought against public policy that hurts working families, retirees, our schools, and our communities.” (Ballotpedia Candidate Connection (2026))

“I am running to be the firewall between the government and your individual liberty. I believe in absolute medical freedom, the right to self-defense, and the protection of free speech.” (Ballotpedia Candidate Connection (2026))

“I am most passionate about revitalizing Florida's small businesses. With a Master’s in Hospitality from UCF and years of experience in local restaurants and bars, I have seen firsthand how government red tape strangles innovation.” (Ballotpedia Candidate Connection (2026))
