“Freedom – the absence of necessity, coercion, or constraint in choice or action Liberty – the power of choice Our Constitution grants us ALL, the citizens of the United States of America, inalienable rights that I promise to uphold rather than impinge.”
(Ballotpedia 2026 Candidate Connection Survey) “The Republican Party that has been in control of SC for the past 25 years has failed the youth of South Carolina. Our state is currently ranked 43rd for Education & that is shameful! Our students deserve better & I intend to end the funneling of tax dollars away from our public schools. Democracy dies without education, so I will strive to improve our public schools & universities.”
(Ballotpedia 2026 Candidate Connection Survey) “South Carolina, especially the Upstate, is growing. I think that is a good thing, but we need to make sure that the growth is sustainable & affordable so that we all benefit while preserving the beauty & diversity that brings people here. I'll work to find ways that SC can grow while conserving our natural spaces.”
