Reason for Seeking Public Office:

I'm running for the State Senate because the people of District 35, the residents of Bismarck, and quite frankly, so many across our state deserve better than what they're getting. I want to help restore desperately needed balance, common sense and moderation to a legislative body that has become anything but. It's time for new energy and fresh perspective in District 35, and that's certainly something I will bring to the North Dakota Senate.
