What Sets me Apart

Established Community Trust

As a lifelong local, I’ve built trusted relationships across the district, from leadership to staff and families. That experience gives me a deep understanding of our policies, history, and governance.

Constitutional Principles

I believe in the Constitution and the importance of dissenting voices. I will protect the right to be heard, even when opinions differ from my own.

Principled, Not Political

I am not using this role as a stepping stone to higher office. I believe you can support teachers while also respecting parental rights, and I will consistently advocate for both with integrity.
