“I have served Holly's House for the last 11 years. My legacy there is serving more children with more services, thus healing more of the next generation with that work. I'd like to do the same good work at the state level - leaving District 49 in better condition than when I arrived to serve it.”
(Ballotpedia Candidate Connection survey) “After the coal mine shut down, my dad bought a hardware store. I began working in it when I was 13 in 1990. I know how to do a lot of basic maintenance myself as a result. As soon as I turned 16, I got other part-time jobs at grocery stores and restaurants. I've never not worked since I was 13.”
