Issues I’m Running On
I am focusing a large portion of my campaign on education. Visiting school districts across the country has allowed me to understand the core values of our teachers and the necessities that our youth need to make Idaho a competitor in education.
Improving
Education
Education is a priority if we are to keep our kids from leaving the area.
Economic Development
We need to think and do things differently if we are to attract quality employers.
Responsible Leadership
As your representative I will make my votes based on your needs, not someone in Boise.

The Melaleuca Freedom Celebration was another great success! Loved having several family members attend with us. Good food, music, people, message and fantastic fireworks show 🎊🎉
The Fourth of July Parade in Rexburg was fun teaming up with Rep. Britt Raybould. Lots and lots of children, families and candy. This is a great community and we are truly blessed to live here. In our celebrations, let us not forget the founding principle in our Declaration of Independence: “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.”
Happy Birthday to our wonderful state! As a fifth generation Idahoan this day means a lot to me. 🥔Happy Birthday, Idaho!
