I am running for Utah legislature because I have the energy, experience, and collaborative skills needed to solve our very serious water, air, economic, and housing problems.

Cache Valley deserves a

stronger voice
on the issues that matter.

I'm here to listen, discuss, and represent the best interests of everyone in Cache Valley. 

I'm a water scientist, educator, and dad.

I have been working all my life in service to others to build a better world for today and future generations. 

Economy And Environment

- Legislative Priority -

Utah's economy and environment are inseparable. I will work to ensure we strengthen our economy in ways that improve our environment and natural resources for today and future generations.

Quality of Life

- Legislative Priority -

I will work every day to fix our development and housing problems, improve our physical and mental health resources, ensure safety and security for all, reduce taxes for middle- and lower-income people, and increase high-paying jobs in Cache Valley.

Education

- Legislative Priority -

Education is the greatest investment we can make in our society, providing people with opportunities for stability, higher paying jobs, and self-dependency. I will work to ensure that teachers, parents and students, not legislators, decide what gets taught in our classrooms.
