Prior Governmental Experience: School Board Director, PCP
As a school board member, I have proven that leadership means standing in the gap when others would rather look away. When decisions affect families, taxpayers and students, the public deserves honesty, open debate and leaders willing to ask the right questions. Too often the system protects those in power instead of serving voters.
I am a constitutional conservative who believes government must answer to the people.
My vision is simple:
I believe in limited government and responsible stewardship of taxpayer dollars. I will not support unnecessary taxes or wasteful spending. Government should live within its means just like families and small businesses must.
I also believe our constitutional freedoms matter. I strongly support the Second Amendment and the right of law abiding citizens to defend themselves. I am pro life, have been a foster parent and believe every life has value. These principles guide me.
Before serving on the board, I worked for a non profit focused on student first education and in K-12 education support services. I have owned and operated a small buisness including a cattle and horse ranch in Australia and worked for years in the Real Estate industry. Those experiences taught me grit, resilience and practical problem solving.
I will continue asking tough questions, defending taxpayers and making sure government works for the people, not the bureaucracy. If elected, I will bring the same courage and determination I have shown in service to our community.
The future of a better Oregon depends on honest leadership and citizens who are willing to step up and serve. I respectfully ask for your vote.
