“I will reiterate that child advocacy and victim advocacy are what drew me to politics in the first place. Child Welfare, Education, and Public Safety, are all deeply important to me. As I've gone through the campaigning process, I have also gained a new interest in tax policy and the regulatory process when it comes to new or existing businesses, but those interests will always be secondary when compared to topics like education and child advocacy.”
(Ballotpedia) “The easy answer here is that a legislator passes legislation in the interest of their voters, provides tax relief, works to allow a free and fair market, and represents their constituents on a number of additional issues, too many to list here. I believe, specifically for a district like 66, a huge responsibility for the representative is to maintain cross party cooperation. We are a purple district, with a lot of moderates and a lot of independents.”
(Ballotpedia) “Spending is out of control in Kansas, taxes continue to rise, and there isn't a quick fix. Giving relief to the people of Kansas should be a priority, but the solutions will not be easily implemented. Perhaps even more of a challenge is education reform, something that will be essential over the next decade. While I see a path forward, again, there are no quick fixes.”

“I will never count out the dissentient voice. I think that's very valuable, and I think that our own opinions are always flawed, especially when it comes down to a party level.”
