For K-12 education, which is a major focus of my campaign, I’m proposing: A minimum starting pay of 30/hour for all new teachers Local control of schools, with no unnecessary state intervention Expansion of charter schools funded only through private donations True school choice, so parents can choose the district that best fits their child’s learning style.

I’ve spent the last several years in the classroom as a college communication instructor, working directly with students and seeing firsthand what’s working and what’s not. That experience shapes how I approach education. I believe we need to invest more in education, but that doesn’t mean raising taxes. It means prioritizing better. Too often, the state spends money on things like constant capital renovations while teachers and classrooms get overlooked. That needs to change. Learn more

I also want to put more money back in your pocket. That means no state income tax on your first 25,000 if you’re an individual, or 50,000 if you’re filing jointly. And on top of that, I support eliminating personal property tax on the first 10,000 of your property. At the end of the day, this is about fairness. You should be able to keep more of what you earn and not get nickel-and-dimed just for getting by. Republicans say they’re for tax cuts, and Democrats say they’re for helping the poor. This accomplishes both of those things. Learn more
I believe it’s time to completely eliminate the state sales tax. Right now, it hits the people who can least afford it the hardest. Every time you buy groceries, clothes, or everyday essentials, you’re paying a higher percentage of your income than someone at the top. That’s not fair—and it doesn’t have to be that way. There are already five states in the country doing just fine without a sales tax, and Missouri can too. So how do we make up the difference? My plan is simple: shift the burden away from working families and onto high-value, unused assets. I’m proposing a targeted tax on undeveloped land in Missouri valued at 1 million or more. If land is sitting there not being used, it should contribute its fair share. Learn more
