Why I’m running

I’m running for the Utah State Senate because I’ve seen up close just how hard it’s becoming to build and hold onto a life here.

I see it as a City Councilmember when families show up worried about housing costs or whether they’ll be forced to leave the community they love. I see it in my work in housing and community development, where decisions made at the Capitol translate directly into what people can afford, what cities can do, and who gets left behind.

I ran for public office because I believe community is one of our most powerful tools for solving problems, and decision makers should understand the consequences of their choices.

District 5 deserves a voice in the Legislature that listens, sets aside partisan bickering, and speaks with conviction when it matters. We deserve a senator that shows up for our community and is willing to stand with working families.

I want to make sure the next generation can afford to live here, serve here, and build their future here, just like the generations before them.
