Utah State House District 29

“I believe most Utahns are not interested in partisan fights or politics. They want results and will vote for the right people - not just a party.” (Campaign website)

“Because it's my lifetime career, healthcare policy is very important to me. I also want to protect the values and agricultural lifestyles important to the communities in my district. I want to support infrastructure, including regional trail systems, that will make transportation smoother, faster, and more enjoyable so we can all spend more time together as families and friends. I believe our communities need a unified voice fighting for them at the state level to protect and preserve the values we espouse.” (Ballotpedia)

“I am running for the Utah House of Representatives because I believe deeply in service to my community and in the responsibility we have to be engaged in the civic process.” (Campaign website)

“My commitment to service is not new. I have had the privilege of serving on numerous local boards and committees. Those roles taught me the value of listening, collaborating, and finding practical solutions that work for our communities - not just in theory, but in real life. I also strongly believe decisions should be made as close to home as possible.” (Campaign website)

“I am particularly interested in constitutional limits on government, individual liberty, property rights, taxation and spending, privacy, education, criminal justice, and state and federal authority.” (Ballotpedia)

“Jesus Christ is foremost among those I look to as an example. I try to follow His teachings because of my love and respect for Him and what I believe He has done for me. I also admire people who learn true principles and then have the courage to live and teach them. I saw that in my father, who never sought the spotlight but was repeatedly trusted with leadership, and in my grandmother, whose faith remained strong through tremendous adversity.” (Ballotpedia)

“I hope my legacy is one of learning true principles, striving to live them, and sharing what I learn with others. That is why I teach, write, create music, tell stories, and try to serve those around me. I want to help people build strong relationships rooted in truth and principle, and to have the courage to decide who they are, what they believe, and how they will live accordingly.” (Ballotpedia)

“Family Court Reform - Families shouldn't have to go bankrupt fighting in court. We need to reform litigation cost incentives so disputes resolve fairly without draining family resources. We also need better custody order enforcement and accountability in DCFS investigations so children's welfare and family stability are truly protected.” (Ballotpedia)

“My parents. They modeled how to build something meaningful with your own hands, stay rooted in community, and raise kids who think for themselves. I also admire people working on real problems locally, people willing to do the unglamorous work of listening and serving without needing credit. Teachers matter. Small business owners matter. Farmers matter. I want to represent people who've never felt they had a seat at the table.” (Ballotpedia)

“I want to help children and families navigate one of the most difficult times in their lives with less trauma, less expense, and more support. Family courts are broken right now. Families spend tens of thousands of dollars on litigation when they should be spending time healing. Parents fight over custody in a system designed to generate conflict, not resolve it. Children get caught in the middle of a process that often makes things worse, not better.” (Ballotpedia)
