Get StartedI want to focus on the kinds of jobs that make sense here, and that can actually grow here: healthcare, solar, clean energy, skilled trades, logistics, and advanced manufacturing. And I’m not talking about vague politician nonsense where somebody cuts a ribbon, takes a picture, and disappears. I’m talking about building real pipelines through technical schools, colleges, and workforce training so people in this district can get trained, get hired, and even launch solar and clean-energy businesses of their own.

That means creating a system where parents have access to affordable childcare and early learning opportunities once maternity or parental leave ends. It means strengthening our public schools so every student has the resources and support they need to succeed. And it means making higher education and trade training accessible so every Georgian can graduate with the skills needed to build a stable career. Learn more
In the United States of America in 2026, someone who works hard should be able to afford housing, groceries, utilities, childcare, and healthcare without feeling like one bad month could knock everything over. Learn more
We should be creating more good jobs right here in Paulding and Polk so people can work closer to home, spend more time with their families, and invest more of their money back into the communities they actually live in. Learn more

I believe learning should happen primarily in the classroom, where teachers can teach, and students can ask questions. When the school day ends, kids should be free to live their lives, explore their interests, and come back the next day ready to learn again. Learn more
Think about what life would look like if everyone could see a doctor when they needed to. The person serving you food would not be going to work sick because they cannot afford treatment. Families would not ignore health problems until they become emergencies. People struggling with mental health could actually get help before things spiral into violence or crisis. Learn more
Georgia can build a healthcare system that puts people before profits. I intend to fight for it. Learn more
We need a transportation system that matches the reality of our growth. That means better roads, better planning, and actual transit options that help people reach jobs without spending their lives behind the wheel. Learn more
Regular people are already paying enough. If Georgia wants to talk about raising taxes, that conversation starts at 1 million a year in income, not with the families I’m asking to vote for me. Learn more
If you work 40 hours a week, you should earn a living wage. Period. Learn more
I believe Georgia should guarantee paid parental leave so new parents can spend time with their children during the most important early months of life. No one should have to rush back to work days after bringing a child into the world because they cannot afford the time off. Learn more
