Who are you? Tell us about yourself.
I am a native of Kentucky who currently resides in Graves County. I am a 2000 and 2011 graduate of Murray State University and a 2014 graduate of Lindenwood University in Missouri. I completed a B.A. in Psychology, M.A.Ed. in School Guidance and Counseling, and M.A. in Professional Counseling. I am currently Rank I certified by the Kentucky EPSB.
My husband, Jerry “Peanut,” and I have been married since 2014. We are a blended family that includes six adult children and their significant others, three younger children, and five grandchildren. We are a Christian and farming family who respects the value of commitment, hard work, and sacrifice. My motivation to seek office has been fueled by a determination to ensure that our children and grandchildren are able to retain the rights associated with being inherently free.
I have spent most of my adult life raising children and have no significant previous professional involvement in politics. I have been employed as Social Services Director of a Western Kentucky retirement community. I also spent four years working as a counselor with the Kentucky Department of Juvenile Justice. Kim has enjoyed raising their three small children since 2015 and began homeschooling in 2021.
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?
Power belongs to the People. The government is in place for our benefit and at our service. Our rights have been chiseled away so slowly that many do not even recognize that it has happened. We are in a position to take back our Power from the government and we can insist that our elected public servants speak on our behalf.Our forefathers intended and the Constitution demands small government. The general purpose of government is to protect the rights of the smallest minority, which is the individual.We deserve honest and transparent representation by humble members of the community. Career politicians have made it clear for whom they work. It is as easy as following the money and their voting history. We are already capable of instilling term limits at the ballot box. It is our duty to know what candidates stand for before placing our vote and removing those from office that do not place individual liberty at the top of their priorities.
What areas of public policy are you personally passionate about?
I support public policies that are written to promote individual liberty. I fully support the First and Second Amendments and medical autonomy, believe that the Right to Life includes preborn babies, and that government has no legitimate claim to your income. It is not the duty of the government to extend so-called "charity," but it is our duty as human beings to assist our neighbors in need on a voluntary basis.
I believe programs and services should be referred to local and community oversight with the exception of national defense and enforcement of contracts. Government spending is out of control because we have allowed it to make itself responsible for attempting to fulfill every need for Americans and for other nations. Humans are capable of making decisions for themselves and are capable of assisting each other voluntarily when there is a legitimate need. Forced charity is not charity. It is enabling, fosters dependence on the government, and enables the government to exert power and control in exchange for basic necessities.
I am also passionate about election integrity, attainable legal immigration, and freedom of individual choice. Peace within and between nations is only achievable if we allow others to manage themselves as opposed to using government to force our own morals upon other groups of people. We must allow others the same freedom we want for ourselves. If there is no victim, there is most often no crime.
