Statement
I'm in the White House next to President Trump thinking "Wow, what an amazing journey, God is truly great!" You see my family life growing up was rough, which I compounded with reckless and bad decisions and early legal trouble. Yet in my darkest moment I had a personal encounter with faith that transformed me, gave him purpose, and set me on a mission to help others. Fast forward and I'm an ordained Pastor, I lead a thriving church with my amazing wife, I'm involved in protecting our conservative values on our local school board, I'm a Turning Point USA Faith Pastor, and I was invited onto the National Faith Advisory Board, which brought me to the White House to meet with our President. My motivation comes from a love of country and service, so when I was asked to run for State House I stepped up. I've fought and won on important issues already, so I can't wait to get to the State Capitol and champion secure borders, election integrity, strong schools and school choice, parental rights, our Constitutional rights, lower taxes, our water, and lower prices for food, gas, housing, utilities, and more. I ask for your vote!
