Please list below 3 key messages of your campaign. What are the main points you want voters to remember about your goals for your time in office?

Cost of living is consistently a top issue for voters, regardless of party affiliation, and for good reason - the once-basic promises of owning a home, saving for retirement, and starting a family feel out of reach for average people, especially young people entering the workforce. There are several policy changes we can make at the federal level to turn this trend around, like banning corporations from buying up single-family homes, closing tax loopholes that allow the ultra-wealthy to pay little to no income tax, raising marginal tax rates for the highest-income individuals and corporations, and giving tax breaks and credits to the wage earners who ultimately fuel economic growth.Healthcare in this country needs a complete overhaul. According to a 2025 survey by KFF, over one-third of Americans reported avoiding healthcare in the past year due to cost. That same survey found that just under half of Americans found it difficult to pay for healthcare costs. The American healthcare system is a swamp of private insurers with a profit incentive to deny claims, for-profit hospital systems with no price transparency, and patchwork legislation that fails to cover the gaps. There is a clear solution: Medicare for All. Universal healthcare is projected to be cheaper for average families and for the nation as a whole, in addition to being simply the right thing to do.Hardworking immigrants from around the world have come to the United States seeking freedom and opportunity for generations. Instead of honoring that legacy, some politicians blame the nation's problems on people seeking the American Dream to distract from their own refusal to make the economy work for the people. Immigrants are not political scapegoats to use when politically convenient - they are people who deserve dignity, respect, and an efficient legal process to enter the United States, join the workforce, and become citizens. Instead of spending billions to expel immigrants, let's make a clear path to citizenship for those brought here as children and those already here with no criminal record so we can grow the economy.

What areas of public policy are you personally passionate about?

In addition to my focus on utilizing federal fiscal and tax policy to make the economy work for the average person, I am a strong supporter of LGBTQIA+ rights, reproductive freedom, free and high quality public education, and maintaining a free and independent press.

What is your favorite book? Why?

White Fang by Jack London. London's descriptions of Alaska and the rugged individuals he encountered have always captured my imagination. Of all of his writings, White Fang has stuck with me the most. It reminds me that no matter the circumstances we face, we all deserve dignity, respect, kindness, and a place in the world.

What do you perceive to be the United States' greatest challenges as a nation over the next decade?

Growing income inequality and stagnant real wages have been the biggest challenge for Americans for the recent past and will continue to be for the decades to come if we continue to ignore the systemic issues causing the rich to get richer while the working class earns less and less each year.

What committees interest you?

As a practicing attorney, I believe that the most suitable House committee for my knowledge base and skills is the House Judiciary Committee. My focus on economic policy and and background in both the financial industry and insurance law make me well-suited for the House Committee on Financial Services.
