Reason for Seeking Public Office:

I am running for state representative because deep cuts to Jeffco schools are threatening the future for our kids. I will fight to re-hire teachers, make class sizes smaller and provide students with the same opportunities I've had to make a better life. I will fight to make sure that we invest in infrastructure and education so that everyone gets a fair shot. I value common sense solutions and am committed to working across the aisle, so we have a state government that encourages confidence and investment from businesses to get Colorado back to work.
