The biggest challenges will be to reduce the burden of excessive or wasteful government, reduce property tax burden, improve education, control health care costs, and maintain and improve our infrastructure.” (Community Impact Candidate Q&A (February 17, 2026))
“I will work hard for them, and I will communicate regularly during the session with information about what is happening in Austin, how I am voting and why I am voting that way. I will be respectful and listen.” (Community Impact Candidate Q&A (February 17, 2026))

“I’m running because I love the community that raised me, and believe public service should make people’s lives better. I’ve worked across the aisle to deliver results for HD70, and want to keep fighting for affordable communities, strong public schools, safer neighborhoods, and a Texas where every family can thrive.” (Community Impact Candidate Q&A (August 31, 2026))
“Affordability and rapid growth are putting pressure on families. We need property tax relief that doesn’t leave renters behind, lower homeowners insurance costs, strong infrastructure and fully funded public schools.” (Community Impact Candidate Q&A (August 31, 2026))
“Texas must fully fund public schools, reform recapture, increase teacher pay, protect TRS, and strengthen special education. Plano families send significant tax dollars away through recapture while our schools face difficult budget decisions.” (Community Impact Candidate Q&A (August 31, 2026))
