Real Competence, Not Just Conflict.

Texas has a record budget surplus. But our public schools are still underfunded and Special Education programs are fighting for scraps. This isn't a revenue problem. It is a management problem. My background is in Federal Risk Management and Cybersecurity. I audit complex systems for a living. I find the problems and I fix them. I am running to bring that same mindset to Austin. We need to cut through the waste in our state bureaucracy. We need to ensure our tax dollars actually go where they belong. That means fully funding our local classrooms and delivering the Special Education services our children were promised.Fair Elections. No More Rigged Maps.

Competition is good for business. It should be good for government too. Right now, career politicians draw "safe" districts to kill competition. They pick their voters so they never have to worry about losing. This silences anyone who disagrees with them. If a politician knows they can't be fired, they stop listening to you. They don't care about your opinion because they don't need your vote. That isn't representation. It is ruling. I support independent redistricting. We need to force politicians to earn every single vote. Let's send them a message!Protect the Constitution. Stop the Political Stunts.

Austin politicians are treating our rights like props for their political campaigns. They pass laws they know are unconstitutional just to grab headlines, then stick taxpayers with the legal bill when they inevitably lose in court. That isn't leadership. It is expensive grandstanding. Worse, these laws expand the size of government to micromanage your daily life. I believe in personal responsibility, not state control. I don't want the government in my bank account, my doctor's office, or my church. I am running to stop the political theater and defend your right to live your real life.

What areas of public policy are you personally passionate about?

Public Education - Texas has a massive budget surplus, yet our schools and Special Education programs are fighting for scraps and our teachers are moonlighting to make ends meet.

Transparency - You shouldn't have to be a political expert to understand what your government is doing. Politicians intentionally use confusing rhetoric to hide the truth. I want to simplify government operations so every voter can see exactly where their tax dollars go without the spin.

Digital Privacy - As a cybersecurity professional, I will champion Digital Privacy Rights to protect your data from the tech giants AND those in the government that will misuse it.
