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?

In the Military, I took a pledge to uphold the Constitution and to fight all enemies, foreign and domestic. Looks like the fight isn't over.We don't need more millionaires or billionaires in politics. We need more neighbors, more workers, more Veterans. Let's put the 'WE' back in "We The People".After moving to Brevard upon my end of Military duty, I found a home here. I care about the people, the places, and the issues facing our area. I have spent my years in Brevard working for our community. From sitting on the Board of Directors for the Melbourne Main Street Association and volunteering to work with the Brevard County Elections, to working with local businesses in order to cultivate their identities. I look forward to working on a larger scale in order to help lower housing costs and increase the quality of life for all Floridians.

What areas of public policy are you personally passionate about?

Lowering housing and healthcare costs, ensuring stability in the VA and Social Security, disbanding ICE, and restoring sanity and trust to the Government. You can read more about the issues I plan to make the forefront of my time in office on my website.
