Education & schools: “In addition to her educational pursuits, her community involvement continued, with volunteering for the forestry committee in Cass City, organizing constitutionally protected practicing of our rights, and in general pitching in whenever a pair of hands, a hot meal, or a warm hug are needed. Her first question is most often "How can I help?"”
(Campaign website) Priorities & campaign themes: “No surprise that, according to the baby book her mother kept, her first sentence was "I got it"”
(Campaign website) Housing: “We are currently planning our campaign kick off event. Be sure to sign up for event updates to stay informed.”
(Campaign website) Priorities & campaign themes: “Sitting around the dining table, you often hear complaints about our government. Talk about how the government has forgotten rural areas. Working my way up thru the ranks, going above and beyond for my customers, coworkers and employers, I eventually became an executive chef at an assisted living facility. It exposed me to a whole segment of our population that is often forgotten, with their own unique set of concerns. I look around at this beautiful area we are privileged to call home and I see where we can do better for our people.”

Abortion & reproductive rights: “My conviction on the sanctity of life remains absolute: I am 100% pro-life, and I believe that every unborn child deserves the right to life, dignity, and legal protection.”
(Campaign website) Abortion & reproductive rights: “The legal landscape surrounding this issue has shifted dramatically. With the U.S. Supreme Court’s historic Dobbsdecision, the federal judiciary rightly returned the authority to regulate abortion back to the states and the people. However, here in Michigan, the passage of Proposal 3 in 2022 fundamentally altered our state constitution, enshrining a broad right to so-called "reproductive freedom" and creating an incredibly challenging legal framework for the pro-life movement.”
