Get StartedI am dedicated to ensuring that our state's law enforcement agencies have the resources they need to carry out their duties effectively. This includes advocating for fair compensation, access to cutting-edge technology, and support for programs that strengthen the relationship between police officers and the communities they serve.

I believe in fostering an environment where law enforcement agencies work hand-in-hand with residents to address the unique needs of our diverse communities. By investing in comprehensive training programs, supporting mental health initiatives, and promoting fair and just policing practices, we can create a law enforcement system in Colorado that is not only effective but also respects the rights and dignity of all individuals.

The legislature is poised in 2024 to tackle "fully funding education" which is a very exciting step, but could also be devastating if it's short sighted or treated as a "fix." It is critical that we maintain a safety-net and keep our eyes on funding education without excuses. Learn more
Advocating for legislation that encourages sustainable practices in agriculture, industry, and everyday life, with a focus on reducing pollution and promoting environmentally friendly technologies. Learn more
Air quality in our area is some of the worst in the country - not every day, but enough to cause serious health issues. Although much more can be accomplished to reduce pollution, one area we can impact quickly and efficiently is INDOOR AIR QUALITY. I plan to support legislation in 2024 to support monitoring and cleaning the air we breathe. Learn more

Influence of money in politics is a real and necessary part of our current political process, and it's important that we ensure fair representation. I'm a firm believer in transparent funding mechanisms for political campaigns. Learn more
I'm interested in supporting a workable universal healthcare option for all Coloradans. I'm also firmly in the fight to protect abortion rights, gender affirming care, and people's right to work out their healthcare with their doctors vs. Politicians or insurance companies. Learn more
Another area that I plan to tend to in 2024 are consumer protection issues that are impacting homebuyers such as delayed closings (for profit), and adjustments to our "Defects Laws" that stifle building new housing. Learn more
My "mission" for housing in District 37 is to work on incentives that expand housing inventory – more places to live at affordable prices. We need to build a wider variety of housing projects that create a mix of dense use, affordability, and responsible transportation. Learn more
Additionally, we need to expand Homestead Exemption and provide other tax relief for people who have owned their homes in our communities for many years and reduce the burden on downsizing or moving. Learn more
