Who are you? Tell us about yourself.

Wyoming isn't just where I was born and raised it's where I want to build my life and invest in the people and communities that make this state special.

I've spent my career in public service, and I've seen firsthand that government can make a real difference when it listens to people and focuses on solving problems instead of scoring political points. That's what inspired me to run for the Wyoming House.

I'm running because I want young people to see a future in Wyoming not an exit plan. Too many of my friends and neighbors have felt like they had to leave to find good jobs, affordable housing, or opportunities to build a life. I don't believe that has to be our story.

I believe in hard work, accountability, and taking care of our neighbors. Those values aren't partisan they're Wyoming values. We can honor our heritage while creating more opportunity, lowering costs for families, and building a stronger economy.

I'm not running because I think I have all the answers. I'm running because I believe representation starts with listening. The people of Wyoming deserve a representative who shows up, hears their concerns, and fights for practical solutions.

At the end of the day, this campaign is about one simple idea: Wyoming is home, and I want to help ensure every generation has the opportunity to build a future here.

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?

Preserving Community. Keep Wyoming a place where families can build a future not just get by

Wyoming should be a state where young families can afford to stay, workers can find good-paying jobs, and local businesses can thrive. That means investing in apprenticeships and skilled trades, lowering the cost of living, and growing industries that create opportunity right here at home. Strong communities are built by giving people the chance to live, work, and raise their families in Wyoming not forcing them to leave to find opportunity elsewhere.Honoring Heritage.

Honoring Wyoming's heritage means taking care of the people who built our communities and ensuring every generation can live with dignity. Families deserve affordable housing, accessible healthcare, and groceries that don't strain the household budget. Preserving our values isn't about looking backward it's about making sure the people who made Wyoming what it is can continue to call it home.Looking Foward. Building the Wyoming the next generation deserves. Wyoming's future depends on preparing today's students, workers, and entrepreneurs for tomorrow's economy. Modern infrastructure, excellent schools, and long-term economic planning will help keep talent in Wyoming and attract new opportunities. We can protect what makes Wyoming special while building a stronger future that works for everyone

What areas of public policy are you personally passionate about?

Health Care, Social Services, Economy and Labor Policy, and Technology.

What do you perceive to be your state's greatest challenges over the next decade?

I believe Wyoming’s greatest challenges over the next decade will be stopping out-migration, planning responsibly for our long-term financial future, and strengthening the infrastructure needed to support our communities.

Too many Wyomingites, especially younger generations, are leaving the state because they don’t see enough opportunities to build a future here. We need to create an environment where people can find good jobs, afford to live, and raise their families in the communities they call home.

At the same time, we must take a thoughtful approach to long-term financial planning. Wyoming has benefited from significant natural resource revenues, but we have a responsibility to prepare for changing economic conditions and ensure future generations have the resources they need.

Addressing these challenges will also require investing in and maintaining the infrastructure that supports our communities from roads and water systems to the services that allow Wyoming to grow and thrive. By focusing on smart planning and practical solutions, we can preserve what makes Wyoming special while building a stronger future.

Do you believe that compromise is necessary or desirable for policymaking?

Yes, I believe compromise is both necessary and desirable when it leads to better outcomes for the people we represent. Good policymaking starts with listening, understanding different perspectives, and finding common ground where possible.

Compromise does not mean giving up on your values it means being willing to work with others to solve problems. The people of Wyoming deserve leaders who are focused on results, not just political victories. I believe we can stand firm on our principles while still working together to find practical solutions that move our state forward.
