Reason for Seeking Public Office:
I am running for this office because I feel people deserve a better quality of life. I see people in my district who are working hard to raise their families struggle just to make ends meet. Our General Assembly needs to put the priorities back in place and take special interest and personal agendas of of Raleigh. We might be from different parties but as representatives we should be charged with taking care of all people no matter who they are. We must come together as a state and country and realize we are only as strong as our communities, families and people.
