Campaign priorities: “Healthcare - Nevada's healthcare has many opportunities for improvement. There aren't enough physicians (we are 48th in the country for number of doctors per capita), and we need more providers of all kinds including nurses and other ancillary staff. We need to focus on making Nevada more welcoming of medical personnel, as well as pipeline programs to encourage Nevada's youth to be educated in the medical field. • Education - Nevada's education for our children is failing. We need to closely analyze where the education funding is going.” (Ballotpedia Candidate Connection survey (2024))
Jobs, wages & cost of living: “Healthcare - we need to keep up with the huge expansion in population, and work toward increased access to quality healthcare Education - We need to be doing a better job educating the youth in Nevada, which will enable us to have a superior workforce and productive adults in the community. Economy - Our economy needs to improve to allow Nevadans to prosper. This includes spending less on our everyday expenses, as well as businesses prospering with lower taxes and less burdensome regulation.” (Ballotpedia Candidate Connection survey (2024))

Campaign priorities: “N.V. Energy and The PUC have installed a new “Demand Charge” that will end up costing everyone more money on their bills every single month. I have been speaking out against this terrible policy since last year, and I will continue to fight until this is repealed and no utility can do this to the hard working people of Nevada who are already struggling to afford everything just to live. We need lower utility bills, not higher, and we need to focus on making things better for the working class, not punishing them. • Housing is the state of Nevada is out of control.” (Ballotpedia Candidate Connection survey (2026))
Jobs, wages & cost of living: “Affordability. Every single item we buy and service we pay for has increased dramatically. Utility Bills, Insurance, Rent and Mortgage, groceries, gas, healthcare . You name it, it has skyrocketed. We need people in government that know what it is like to worry about 500$ power bills and spending over 100$ at the grocery store for a few bags that will only last a couple days. We need people that will fight for real change that the working class can see and feel in their bank account.” (Ballotpedia Candidate Connection survey (2026))
