Reason for Seeking Public Office:

"We must ensure that we keep this district in good hands. We need a State Representative who is going to stand up, fight hard and deliver for our families, farmers and businesses"

"While serving as the Mayor of Monticello, I had a track record of delivering not only for Monticello but for the entire region. I am dedicated to continuing that same record of service at the Capitol.

And I will uphold the highest ethical standards,"
