Housing: ““I’m a lifelong Michigander who has called West Michigan home for the past decade. Growing up, my parents made sure we were raised with a strong faith and a set of values that have stayed with me my whole life: Work hard. Tell the truth. And love my neighbor as myself.””
(Campaign website) Economy, jobs & cost of living: “As a 21 year factory worker, I am most passionate about government transparency, legislative accountability, and local control. Michigan state government needs to work for the people, which means expanding FOIA laws to cover the Governor and legislature, reforming house rules so bills get fair votes on the floor instead of dying in committee, and protecting local township zoning authority from state overreach like PA 233. Above all, I am passionate about bringing a working class voice to state policy to protect local jobs and keep our communities strong.”
