“I’m passionate about fully funding our public schools, restoring transparency and ethics in government, and ensuring the will of the voters is respected. As a working parent, I care about lowering everyday costs while fighting for a living wage for workers, and I also support expanding access to mental health care and healthcare services to underserved communities including our more rural areas, women, children, and veterans.”
(Ballotpedia Candidate Connection) “I want my kids to be proud of me. I hope that I am able to set the example that you don't have to accept things that you don't agree with, that every person has the power and the voice to stand up and ask questions and advocate for what they believe in, even if it is hard.”
