Husband, father, retired 15-year Air Force veteran, Democratic candidate for Arkansas State Representative District 91.

1. Ending childhood poverty 2. Strengthening public education 3. Healthcare for all 4. Veterans

Integrity first and foremost and remembering who you serve.

The first historical event I recall growing up was the first Gulf War. When Operation Desert Shield started in 1990, I was 9 years old. I did not understand the significance of the event, but I remember it being important and all over the tv.

Healthcare and infrastructure. We are a very diverse state with large, rural areas where poverty is rampant. Over the next decade, those rural areas will likely lose access to public services like hospitals and health clinics. With that, the lack of public transportation will make it difficult to access those services for many Arkansans.

Cooperative. It is my hope that as a state legislator, the governor and I would have the same goals of working for the citizens of my district and the state as a whole.

Yes, we have seen the decline of cooperation and compromise and it is my goal to help make government work for the people again.

I believe redistricting should be an open, transparent process, led by the people and not by elected officials or lobbyists.
