Why are you running for office?



I am running for office because our public schools are under attack. We need a representative who lives in the district and understands the unique needs of House District 93. I am running to improve access to healthcare, create a better economy and push for safe and secure borders.



What are the biggest challenges facing House, District 93?



House District 93 has grown so fast but we lack the infrastructure, and the prices of homes have skyrocketed. There are a lot of families who suffer from food insecurity and are barely making ends meet. Inflation (price gouging), homeowners insurance and car insurance have also increased.



How do you plan to address these issues?



We have to get better at planning and projecting growth in North Texas. We also have to regulate insurance companies and corporations who abuse consumers. Our public schools need the support the Texas constitution demands, because the schools also affect the prices of the homes.



What would your top priorities be if you are elected?



My priorities are to support and fund public schools, improve the economy, extend access to healthcare and have safe and secure borders.
