1. What inspired you to run for public office, and what positive changes do you hope to bring to your district/state if elected?

I am a God-fearing conservative who believes in a free and fair election process and that the second amendment is a God-given right. Our country is going in a downward spiral and we continue to elect the same politicians, and expect different results. That is the definition of insanity. When we go through challenges in our life we should learn and grow from them. I believe God has brought me here and is challenging me for a time such as this. I will be A Strong VOICE at the capitol and look forward to representing the constituents in District 10A.

2. Please identify the top three critical issues facing your state, and how do you envision solving them to benefit the communities in your state?

The #1 problem in the United States of America is Corrupt Career Politicians (CCP), nationally and in Minnesota. Our founders intended for us to have a citizen legislature where a regular citizen is elected for a short time and then goes back to living under the laws they helped create. We have many legislators who have been in office for well over a decade and as a result, government overreach & government spending are out of control!

Election Integrity - if we don’t have free and fair elections, our Country will be like any other and Our Country is NOT like any other, we are America and we need to get our election processes back on track.

The Children - they ARE the future, but not if we can’t get a hold of what is happening to them now. They need to be protected in the womb. They need to be protected during their formidable years. Children need to be protected. We need to empower parents to be able to make the decisions for their families, not let our government make decisions for our children.

My vision for solving these problems is…far too many elected officials make a career out of politics and when career politicians like my opponent Ron Kresha spend more than a decade at the capitol they completely lose touch with the actual people living back in their districts. They end up caring more about getting re-elected and staying in power than they care about the concerns of the people they are supposed to represent. Politics was never meant to be a career!
WE THE PEOPLE have had enough of lifetime legislators. It’s time to take our state and our country back by electing fresh candidates who will bring a fresh perspective.
