In their own words
Who are you? Tell us about yourself.
I'm proud of Kansas. My values were shaped here. I've gained a lot of perspective serving as President of the Board of Trustees for Flint Hills Technical College. And, decades of senior leadership at The Dow Chemical Company, CEO of Styron Inc., and Co-Founder and CEO of Green Dot Bioplastics. Now, I'm ready to bring that deep business and economic expertise to the State House. I'm running for the Kansas House of Representatives because I believe our rural districts deserve experienced, practical leadership that knows how to create steady jobs, protect public education, and ensure our families have the resources they need to thrive.
