The Economy & Cost of Living Crisis

The number one thing I hear from families is simple: everything costs too much. Groceries, utilities, housing, insurance — people are stretching dollars farther than ever, and it’s exhausting.

My position is straightforward: I want to stabilize the cost of living for Missouri families.

I’m focused on policies that lower everyday expenses, protect small and mid-size businesses, reduce unnecessary federal barriers, and support the workers who keep this state running.

Healthcare Access & Affordability

Healthcare shouldn’t feel impossible to afford or impossible to access — but that’s exactly where we are.

My view is that Missouri needs practical, not partisan solutions.

I support expanding urgent care access, improving mental health resources, strengthening rural hospitals, and pushing for transparency from insurance companies. Families deserve predictable, fair, and accessible healthcare options.

Jobs, Wages, and Workforce Development

I believe jobs should lead to stability — not stress.

Too many people in Missouri want better opportunities but can’t get the training, the certifications, or the wages needed to get ahead.

My angle is to invest heavily in workforce development: tech and cyber pathways, trade programs, employer partnerships, and fair-wage standards that allow people to build a future here, not move away to find it.

Public Safety & Crime Prevention

I’m committed to making our communities safer. Springfield and Greene County are dealing with rising crime, drug issues, and overwhelmed first responders. Families deserve to feel safe at home, on the road, and in their neighborhoods.

My approach is balanced: support law enforcement with the funding and tools they need, while also investing in prevention, rehabilitation, and smarter sentencing that actually reduces repeat crime instead of recycling people through the system.

Protecting Children & Strengthening Families

For me, “family values” means supporting families where it matters — not where politics wants to fight.

Childcare is expensive, schools are stretched thin, teen mental health is worsening, and too many families are living on the edge.

My focus is to create stability for kids and families: safer communities, access to counseling, better support for teachers and students, and policies that help families grow instead of punishing them when they’re already struggling.

Infrastructure, Roads, & Internet Access

Missouri can’t grow if our infrastructure stays stuck twenty years behind.

My position is to modernize our roads, expand rural broadband, and hold contractors and agencies accountable so taxpayer dollars actually reach the projects they’re meant for.

Good infrastructure isn’t political — it’s essential.

Government Accountability & Overreach

I’m running because I believe the government should work for you, not the other way around.

People in Missouri are tired of political games, federal overreach, and decisions being made by people who have never lived the struggles we deal with here every day.

My angle is simple: limited, responsible government that respects personal freedom, cuts waste, reduces red tape for small businesses, and puts Missouri families ahead of party politics or special interests.
