Thanks for visiting my Web site. It's a great honor to serve the people of the beautiful 16th District. This is my third term as your state representative. I spend a lot of time listening to constituents about the needs of our communities. This important feedback helps me refine my priorities as your state representative, including:

• Creating and preserving jobs;
• Working to help empower parents to be their kids’ first teachers and making sure all kids are prepared and excited about entering kindergarten:
• Addressing agricultural needs and concerns;
• Making health care more affordable and accessible;
• Preparing students for our diverse economy; and
• Responsible state budgeting that cares for our senior citizens and the most vulnerable.
