Public education & schools: “But for too long, the status quo in Madison has neglected us — defunding public schools and local governments, hoarding taxpayer dollars instead of investing in our communities. I’m running for State Senate because I owe everything to this place, and I believe it’s time to give back and pay it forward. When we invest in ourselves — in our people, infrastructure, and future — we can create a Wisconsin where everyone has a real shot at the American Dream.” (Campaign website (accessed Oct 23, 2026))
Taxes, budget & cost of living: “Rooted in Community, Committed to Service I was born halfway across the world and adopted by my father, a fourth-generation Racinian and small business owner. I will always be a proud product of my hometown. After graduating from Racine Public School and the University of Wisconsin - Milwaukee, I came back to become the youngest person elected to the Racine Common Council in more than a century, where I worked to expand service access for working families and seniors.” (Ballotpedia Candidate Connection survey (2026))
Taxes, budget & cost of living: “The first bill I would introduce is my own Affordability Omnibus, a practical package to lower costs for working families in many different sectors. On housing, it would incentivize first-time homebuyers, expand workforce housing near jobs and transit, and curb corporate speculation in single-family homes. It would make childcare more affordable by stabilizing local providers and cutting out-of-pocket costs for parents. It would cap prescription drug costs by giving the state authority to negotiate prices and limit spikes on lifesaving medications.” (Ballotpedia Candidate Connection survey (2026))
